The best Italian wineries.
Miscianello is an ancient and small peasant reality (someone says that its first settlement dates back to the half of the fourteenth century), surrounded by olive groves, vineyards, forests, in the most absolute tranquility, where nature shows off all its beauty, in sunsets, in as far as the eye can see panoramas and in the ideal microclimate for products and for people.
It is here that the owners have retired after a lifetime of work, and dabble, with meticulous passion and stubbornness together with their experts, in the production of oil and wine, as well as in welcoming customers eager to find within these walls ancient and authentic flavors. Their search for tradition is tenacious, wines are produced using only grapes from the area (Sangiovese, Canaiolo, black and white Malvasia, Trebbiano, Ciliegiolo) and are aged in traditional wooden barrels.
The harvest of grapes as much as of olives is handmade and olives are pressed within 36 hours.
FABER IGT Reserve is obtained from a selection of 100% Sangiovese.
RESERVE of MISCIANELLO is obtained from a selection of Sangiovese and Canaiolo.
PETTIROSSO IGT is composed of the same grapes that from 1716 to 2006 have composed Chianti Classico: Sangiovese, Canaiolo, White Malvasia and Trebbiano.
MISCIANELLO is a Chianti Classico with Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Red Malvasia, Ciliegiolo and Colorino.
Azienda Agraria Santa Lucia of Scotto Lorenzo is situated in the Maremma National Park, an untouched oasis in Tuscany.
For many generations it has been producing wines of high quality, coming from valuable native grape varieties such as Vermentino, Ansonica, Sangiovese, Colorino, Alicante and Ciliegiolo.
To produce wine, for the Scotto family, means to collect grapes selected only among the most suitable soils:
Ansonica Costa dell’Argentario is produced on the mountain of the same name, 300 m above sea level; in the municipality of Orbetello it produces the different types of the Maremma Toscana DOC, Vermentino, Cabernet Sauvignon and Vin Santo;
moreover, in the municipality of Magliano in Tuscany it produces the Morellino di Scansano Torre del Moro DOCG wine and the Maremma Toscana Betto e Losco IGT.
In total, the wines produced by the company are 8, for a total of 150,000 bottles produced.
The family’ bond to winegrowing is proven by the fact that since about 10 years the oenologist of the house has been Lorenzo, while his brother, Luca, takes care of the commercial and marketing activity.
This allows to uses the most modern vinification and aging processes with full respect of the most ancient traditions within the new and technological winery of 1,700 m2, where they offer also services on behalf of a third party, from vinification to packaging, as well as guided visits and a Wine Tour in the company with tasting.
Nowadays, Luciano, Tosca and their sons Lorenzo e Luca, run in total 25 hectares of vineyards and a farmhouse inn.
From the fresh vinasse of their own grapes they get a soft grappa, even in the Reserve version.
Last but not least, the company produces an excellent extra virgin olive oil, Fior d’Oliva.
Everything described is always at your disposal.
You will be welcomed in a prestigious corner of the company used as Tasting Hall, where it will be possible, on reservation, to do tastings and themed dinners/lunches.
From mother to daughter, a “female” passing of the baton to mark the last decades of the history of Azienda Agricola La Ghidina, in Lugana di Sirmione.
The company produces only transforming the fruits of its 6 hectares planted with native vines of the Turbiana variety.
Lugana is an extraordinary wine, appreciated in its vintage, but that gives the best of itself with time, as everything that is grown with love, respect and passion ... a true philosophy of life! Luisella Benedetti
La Bertuzza Estate covers 13 hectares of vineyards, partly surrounding the company on the hills of Castell’Arquato, in one of the best positions of the area, about 120 meters above sea level, and partly in Diolo in Val Chiavenna (municipality of Lugagnano). All the plots of land have a soil mixture ideal for the production of our Colli Piacentini DOC wines and a constant exposure to the sun. This allows to obtain grapes with perfect ripening, healthy and with characteristics that make wines soft, full–bodied and of intense aromas. All natural! The planted vines are the traditional ones, which are needed to produce the wines of the Piacenza hills: Barbera and Bonarda for the red ones, Ortrugo, Malvasia di Candia Aromatica, Moscato, Sauvignon, Trebbiano and Chardonnay for the white ones. More or less 3 hectares of vines are old, with an age of about 40 years. Unfortunately, the more and more scarce yields and, consequently, the unbearable costs, will lead soon to the restoration of the plants, but probably the special clone of Barbera present in the oldest vineyards will be recovered in small clusters, because of its excellent quality.
Vines have natural grass and are grown with the Guyot method with a branch on the new vines and two on the old ones, which have reduced yields not to exceed with alcohol content after vinification. The harvest is made by hand to obtain a grape selection, clean but mostly intact.
In the wine cellar they follow a traditional vinification with steel and cement tanks with the exception of Gutturnio “Superbo”, for which they use barrels with 2 or 3 transitions for an aging of 12 months that do not cover the typicality of wine but makes it more harmonious, complete and structured.
For sparkling wines, autoclaves are used to obtain clear bottled wines, ready for consumption after a natural second fermentation.
For the raisin Malvasia wine, grapes are harvested after a slight withering on the vine and
are placed in small boxes where they complete the drying. End of November, they proceed with crushing. In the early years, as grapes were scarce and there was not any equipment, grapes were crushed with feet, while nowadays an old handling wine press is used. The natural fermentation takes place without yeasts. After a light filtration, it is bottled to be sold the following Easter.
The selected yeasts are used only in cases where it is necessary to start the second fermentation (so all the wine sold in the demijohn is made without added yeast) and not as a standard practice. Sulfur dioxide is used very scarcely, well below the legal limits.
The project of CaLojera wants to show the potential longevity of Lugana and to do it we keep available for sale 10 vintages of Lugana Superiore (1999-2008) and vinify in stainless steel tanks with long fermentations and permanence on the lees.
From the 2003 harvest we have decided to try a Lugana that is young after 10 years and fresh after 15.
Thus, Lugana Del Lupo is created, almost an allegory of the desire of any old men to project himself to the future.
Our family has been involved in viticulture for many generations and each has achieved success by focusing on innovation. Today we are convinced that the future of viticulture focuses on the ecological care of our vineyards without use of
chemicals during the season.
The result of this attention is realized in the production of exceptional wines without the use of chemicals, with the exception of sulfur used in the cellar.
VILLA MATTIELLI farm was founded from the will of two young sisters, Roberta and Valeria, to create a really young and dynamic company, with its own line of quality wines, which is based on the wisdom and passion transmitted by their father.
The vineyards cover 15 hectares of terraced hills between Soave and Valpolicella. Lands that have always been considered ideal for the development of the vine thanks to the mild climate and beautiful exposure to the sun.
The traditional manual harvesting, the selection of the grapes, the care of the vine, are juxtaposed with modern techniques of winemaking in the cellar.
A work of passion, tenacity and pride.
Engaged in the wine world since 1907, the Vitas family now boasts four generations of a tradition constantly handed down from father to son. Today, as in the past, the Strassoldo estate, located in the heart of the Friuli countryside in the beautiful feudal village of Strassoldo, is managed directly by the family in all its phases, from production to marketing.
