On old maps, the place now known as Caparzo is called Cà del Pazzo, a name we have given to a wine born of a selection of grapes from our vineyards located at Caparzo and San Piero Caselle. Cà del Pazzo was produced for the first time in 1982, and is therefore one of the first Supertuscans to have been produced in the the Brunello production area. Produced only in the best vintages, and in limited quantities, it is destined to especially passionate, attentive wine lovers.
AREAS OF ORIGIN OF THE GRAPES: - “Caparzo,” 220 meters above sea level, in the northern part of the Appellation. Terrain: sandy clayey Pliocene sediments. - “San Piero – Caselle,” 250 meters above sea level, in the eastern part of the Appellation. Terrain: sandy clayey.
HARVEST: manual.
PRIMARY FERMENTATION: the different grapes are fermented separately for 6 days at a temperature of 28-30 °C, with subsequent delestages and pump overs.

La Chablisienne

De wijngaarden van La Chablissiene liggen in het hart van Chablis. Ze planten enkel stokken met de Chardonnay-druif. Daar noemt men de druiven Beaunois. De wijngaarden van Chablis zijn één van de oudste van Frankrijk.

 Jaargang 2017 benadert de perfectie : elegant verfijnd . nu mooi op dronk met nog enkele jaren te gaan.

Vinification, ageing and bottling are done entirely under his control in the cellars of the estate in Demigny.  Balance and purity, essential to allow the terroir to fully express itself, remain Francois' top priority.

AR GUENTOTA is "Cuyo's soul" in the language of the Huarpes Indians, the first inhabitants of Mendoza river valley's Cuyo region. This Malbec was aged for 12 months on 2-year-old French Oak Barrels and then placed in bottles to age for a minimum of 12 additional months.
Deep ruby red with violet tones. Intense and complex bouquet with red and black fruit notes (blueberry, blackberry, etc.). Well balanced, elegant and persistent aftertaste.
This wine pairs well with Mexican food. Try it with beef enchiladas, or steak fajitas!

Purper maar nog doorzichtig. Neus van pruimen, rood en zwart fruit, met kruidige toetsen (peper, kaneel) en een zachte vanilletoets. In de mond sappig, heel fruitig, met heel fijne tannines en opvallend goede zuren. Een fijne en heel frisse syrah, geïnspireerd op de Noordelijke Rhône-stijl, maar lichter en frisser.

wijngaard
Zanderige, goed drainerende bodems met veel mineralen. Van de Oreshaka-wijngaard in Slavyani.

kelder
Manuele oogst. Na grondige triage werden de druiven ontsteeld en vergist in open kuipen, waarbij de koek met schilletjes manueel terug wordt ondergedompeld ('pigeages' zoals in de Bourgogne). Na de gisting werd de helft van de wijn overgebracht in vaten van Franse eik, voor acht maanden verdere rijping.

ORIGIN
Some of our Carignan grapes are grown at our estate near Narbonne along the Canal du Midi on vines that are over 50 years old. These are supplemented with grapes grown in the calcareous clay soils of the Minervois for their tannins and aromas of ripe fruit, while grapes from a cooler area in the Corbières mountain range lend freshness and fruitiness.

VINIFICATION
A third of the grapes are handpicked and vinified as whole bunches for freshness and notes of fresh fruit. The rest are vinified traditionally using long macerations that can last up to 3 weeks to lend structure and silky tannins. 80% of the wine is barrel-aged for 6 to 8 months, some of it in new oak.

TASTING NOTES

Agrelo District, Luján de Cuyo, Northern Region, Mendoza, Argentina
The Polígonos creed is a selection of the best lots from different mountain terroirs within the Uco Valley.
The criteria includes differences in altitude, soil and climate that define the sub-regions of San Pablo, Paraje Altamira and Gualtallary. Expect an aromatic, red fruited style slightly reminiscent of Loire Valley franc.
The wine is aged in foudres, limiting the oak influence, and playing on its elegance and freshness.
The palate is dry and floral with an herbaceous leafy undercurrent. Not your typical Argentine red.
This need time in the bottle to gather itself.
