Cantalupo, Bevagna (PG).</p> <h3>Tenuta Castelbuono</h3> <p>Fascinated by an ancient and almost mystical land like Umbria and by a wine of extraordinary power and longevity such as Sagrantino, the Lunelli family acquired the Castelbuono Estate, 30 hectares of vineyards in the municipalities of Bevagna and Montefalco, in 2001. Efforts were initially concentrated on the vineyards, now converted to organic farming, with new plants and the enhancement of existing ones through an articulated selection project clones. In 2003 Montefalco Sagrantino was born, followed the following year by Montefalco Rosso. However, there was a need for a new cellar and the Lunelli family, by virtue of a solid and old friendship with Arnaldo Pomodoro, one of the greatest contemporary artists, proposed to him to create it. The Master accepted with enthusiasm and after the first inspection he had already imagined the project. The “Carapace” – as Pomodoro wanted to call the cellar – required six years of work and was inaugurated and open to the public, for visits and tastings, in June 2012. It is a unique work, which challenges the boundaries between sculpture and architecture. It is the first sculpture in the world in which people live and work, a unique work in which art and nature, sculpture and wine interact, underlining the exceptional nature of both the container and the content. It offers itself to the eye as a large dome covered in copper, engraved with cracks that recall the furrows of the earth that embrace it. A sculptural element in the shape of a red dart sticking into the ground underlines the work in the landscape. Entering the "Carapace" means entering a sculpture by Pomodoro, as immediately perceived by his artistic alphabet, immediately recognizable in the internal vault. A signature cellar for signature wines.</p>

<p>In the 1970s and 1980s, some ambitious winemakers began to shy away from the strict rules of Chianti Classico. Their dissatisfaction with the mediocrity of the contemporary Tuscan wine scene has unleashed a <strong>wave of creativity</strong> and <strong>experimentation</strong> with high quality grapes, clones and winemaking techniques. Querciabella was born in this specific context and <em>Camartina</em> not only laid the foundations for the high quality vinification of the company brand, but also started its rise to success. The flagship of Querciabella, it is one of the few historical wines, collectively known as <strong>Super Tuscans</strong>, which have considerably elevated the position and prestige of Italian wine production on the world stage.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Features:</strong> The <strong>color</strong> is an elegant, intense ruby red. The perfume exudes rich aromas of black and red berries including black cherries, blueberries, ripe plums and tamarind. <strong>Notes</strong> of ivy, undergrowth and freshly cut bark intertwine with hints of leather, sweet tobacco and licorice. The <strong>taste</strong> recalls pronounced flavors of ripe black fruit enriched with nutmeg and sweet spices.</li> <li><strong>Pairings:</strong> To be combined with substantial dishes such as red meat in stews, pasta, meat sauce, roasted and grilled meat, game.</li> </ul> <h3>Vineyards</h3> <p>The vineyards where the grapes for Camartina grow are all located in the immediate near the Ruffoli winery, on the hill of Greve in Chianti. With its marl soils and southern exposure, the Casaocci Sud vineyard offers the ideal environment for textbook Cabernet Sauvignon, here refined by lighter and more elevated notes. On a cooler slope, Poggerino's denser, clay-rich soils typically provide the structural backbone of the Cabernet, as well as the intensity and depth needed for successful aging. Sangiovese grows in selected vineyard blocks ranging from 350 m to 600 m asl with variable orientation, from south to south-west. At lower altitudes, marl and clayey soils give elegance to the wines while higher up the sandstones become prevalent, giving the Sangiovese a juicier vitality. Camartina is produced only in optimal vintages, while micro-vinification in small batches and extremely limited bottling guarantee artisanal excellence. A delicate but precise management of the fermentation in the French oak fermenters allows a beautiful integration of the tannins and the development of the structure. After the malolactic fermentation, the two cépages are aged separately for about 18 months in French oak barrels, up to 20% new, before selecting the best lots for the final blend. The wine comes out no earlier than 30 months after the harvest and, thanks to its longevity, is sure to be a contender for the best cellars.</p> <p><strong>SIZE / WEIGHT:</strong> 0,75 l bottles</p> <p><strong>ORIGIN:</strong> Tuscany.</p> <p><strong>GRAPES:</strong> Cabernet Sauvignon 70%, Sangiovese 30%.</p> <p><strong>ALCOHOL:</strong> 14% vol.</p> <p><strong>SERVING TEMPERATURE:</strong> Temperature between 12/18°C.</p> <p><strong>STORAGE METHOD:</strong> in a cool place away from sunlight.</p> <p><strong>SPECIFIC NOTES:</strong> Contains sulphites</p> <p><strong>PRODUCER:</strong> Società Agricola Querciabella SpA - Greve in Chianti (FI).</p> <h3>Agricola Querciabella</h3> <p>Giuseppe (Pepito) Castiglioni, industrial entrepreneur and lifelong wine lover, bought a single hectare of vineyard on a Tuscan hill and set about creating an estate that would soon encompass the breadth of the region. He dreamed of producing elegant and rich wines, obtained not only from native Sangiovese grapes, but also from those of his beloved Bordeaux and Burgundy. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc, just to name a few. Sebastiano Cossia Castiglioni, Pepito's son, full-fledged investor and entrepreneur, converted the company to organic viticulture in 1988, making Querciabella one of the first wineries in Italy to make use of this practice. Under his leadership, Querciabella became known as one of Italy's best and most innovative winemakers in the early 20th century. Sebastiano's passion for animal rights and environmental protection has taken organic to Querciabella one step further. In 2000 Sebastiano introduced a 100% plant-based approach to biodynamics which prohibits the use of animal products in our vineyards or cellars. Querciabella was once again an innovator in the industry and an inspiration to the region. Today that single hectare in Tuscany is only a small part of the more than 100 hectares of Querciabella vineyards. And in these lively vineyards - flanked by n n the Chianti Classico region by oak woods and rolling hills, and in Maremma by the rugged beauty of an unspoilt Tuscan coast - all the grape varieties Pepito dreamed of now thrive in the rich, biodynamic soil that has become the most important ingredient in the award-winning recipes of Querciabella.</p>

<p>The "San Giorgio" by Lungarotti is an important red, with a good structure and with a considerable potential for evolution over time. It is considered the first real “Superumbrian”. It is customary to use this type of definition, with the name of the region of origin of the wine, preceded by the suffix "Super", to indicate wines produced from blends in which there are also international vines, in particular Bordeaux. The "San Giorgio" was born in 1977 from the skilful union of the native vines of central Italy, Sangiovese and a small percentage of Canaiolo, with the noble Cabernet Sauvignon. Thanks to the perfect balance between the three varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon does not dominate the other grapes, but integrates perfectly, enriching their aromatic profile.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Method:</strong> To produce San Giorgio wine, the Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Canaiolo grapes are harvested in mid-September. The vineyards are cultivated with spurred cordon, with low yields and on the most suitable soils for each variety. The Cabernet Sauvignon is planted on medium-textured soils, with a good presence of skeleton and limestone, which insist on a tuffaceous subsoil. Sangiovese comes from the Monticchio area, where it is grown on soils characterized by the presence of clay and sand. Fermentation takes place in steel, with maceration on the skins lasting 25/28 days. This is followed by an aging period of 12 months in barrique and at least 6 months in bottle.</li> <li><strong>Characteristics:</strong> The Red "San Giorgio" represents a successful interpretation of the marriage between local grapes and Cabernet Sauvignon. In the glass it has an intense and brilliant ruby red color. The nose is complex, with ripe aromas of red berried fruit, jam, soft spices and distant balsamic hints. On the palate it immediately denotes a broad and deep structure, with rich and concentrated aromas, which already show a good evolution towards elegant tertiary notes. The tannic texture is fine and the freshness pleasantly balanced. The finish is long and persistent.</li> <li><strong>Pairings:</strong> A great red to bring to the table with roasts, braised or game, game, spicy cheeses.</li> </ul> <p><strong>SIZE / WEIGHT:</strong> Bottles of 0,75 l</p> <p><strong>ORIGIN:</strong> Umbria.</p> <p><strong>GRAPES:</strong> Cabernet Sauvignon 50%, Sangiovese 50%.</p> <p><strong>ALCOHOL:</strong> 13,5% vol.</p> <p><strong>SERVING TEMPERATURE:</strong> Temperature between 12/18°C.</p> <p><strong>STORAGE METHOD:</strong> in a cool place away from sunlight.</p> <p><strong>SPECIFIC NOTES:</strong> Conti ene sulphites.</p> <p><strong>PRODUCER:</strong> Lungarotti - Torgiano (PG).</p> <h3>Cantina Lungarotti</h3> <p>A symbol of Umbrian winemaking excellence, Lungarotti has written the history of wine in Italy and in the world.

The Barbi family continues the tradition. The origin of the name Decugnano is obscure and is lost over the centuries, but already in 1212 these lands produced wine for the clergy of Orvieto. They were the lands of the church of Santa Maria di Decugnano. In 1973 Claudio Barbi found Decugnano abandoned and immediately fell in love with it. The first wines came out in 1978 and the success was immediate. Did you know that? Decugnano dei Barbi produced the first Umbrian classic method (vintage 1978) and the first Italian noble rot (vintage 1981). The tremendous upheavals of geological eras, time and the hand of man have created a unique terroir in Decugnano dei Barbi. The soils are ocean beds from the Pliocene era. The vineyards have their roots in the sandy and clayey earth, among fossil shells and oysters, giving that mineral and marine character characteristic of our wines. The altitude of over 300 meters favors the right ventilation and an ideal temperature range to enhance the perfumes. While the optimal exposure of the vineyards to the sun guarantees perfect ripening of the grapes.</p>

In 1049 Badia passed to the Vallombrosano order, a reformed branch of the Benedictines specialized in viticulture and silviculture. The chronicles of the monastery history report many suggestive events, including Galileo Galilei's stay in 1587-1588 as a mathematics teachers. Over the centuries, the monastery has been subjected to many restorations that have changed its appearance from time to time. The 65 hectares of vineyards, mainly grown in Sangiovese, extend on a soil rich in limestone rock with an average clay equipment at a height of about 300 meters above sea level.</p>
