FerrariThe history of the Italian classic method sparkling wine is indissolubly related to the precious work of Giulio Ferrari who in the beginning of the last century
decided to turn his passion into reality, the one of producing classic method sparkling wines in his homeland: Trentino. In 1902 and at 23 years old only, Giulio Ferrari, expert viticulturist and enologist, establishes in Trento his winery that will deeply mark the development of Italian enology and bubbles. The young Giulio Ferrari studies at the Imperial Regia Scuola Agraria di San Michele (Imperial and Royal School of Agriculture of San Michele) and later at the renowned School of Agriculture of Montpellier in France. After having worked for some time in Epernay, in the heart of Champagne, he learns the secrets of
the production of classic method sparkling wine that he will then adopt in his Trentino. Exacting, strict and determined, Giulio Ferrari in few years is successful in producing his renowned sparkling wine and that will just be the beginning of a repeated success in Italy and in the world.

FranciacortaArea located northwest of the city of Brescia in the eastern part of Italy's lombardy region. Although it produces a highly regarded white still wine from Pinot Bianco and Chardonnay and a reasonably good red wine, it's the Franciacorta spumante that is widely acclaimed.
Both the bianco and rosato sparkling wines are made via méthode champenoise.

KrugOne of the great names in champagne, Krug is located in Reims in the northern part of the Champagne district. Although owned by Remy Martin of cognac fame, this champagne house is small (producing about 1/2 million bottles per year) and
family-run. Krug simply doesn't sell inexpensive wines-its Grand Cuvée is a non-vintage (Krug calls it multivintage) champagne, made by blending wines from seven to ten different vintages. It's equivalent to most champagne houses' cuvée
de prestige (see champagne). Krug also makes a small quantity of vintage wine, a rosé, and a single-vineyard, vintage champagne called Clos de Mesnil.
Bruno PaillardBruno Paillard was born in Reims in 1953 and is from an old established family of Champagne "vignerons" and brokers. He himself started as a champagne broker in 1975 and does still continue this activity, although he has created his own
champagne house in the meantime (1981). The house of Bruno Paillard is the youngest and one of the smallest champagne houses.

White wines from our region Südtirol, Alto Adige
Südtirol - Alto AdigeDoc zone that covers most of the northern portion of Italy's Trentino-Alto Adige region, Alto Adige. It's located in northeastern Italy, bordered by Lombardy on the west, Veneto on the east, and Austria on the north. Many of the vineyards are planted on steep hillsides as the Alps drop down toward the Adige River and
its tributary, the Isarco. Alto Adige, which is also known as South Tyrol or Südtirol, is officially bilingual, with a German-speaking majority that still has strong ties to Austria (which ceded this area to Italy in 1918). The Alto Adige wines reflect this bilingual approach in their labels-a wine made from the pinot blanc grape might be referred to as both Weissburgunder and Pinot Bianco (both of which mean Pinot Blanc). There are seventeen varietal wines-Cabernet
(from cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc), chardonnay, lagrein (labeled as Lagrein Rosato or Lagrein Kretzer for rosé wines and Lagrein Scuro or Lagren Dunkel for red wines), Malvasia (also labeled Malvasier), Merlot, Muscat (labeled Moscato Giallo or Goldenmuskateller for white wines and Moscato Rosa or Rosenmuskateller for rosé wines), müller thurgau (also labeled Riesling-Sylvaner), Pinot Blanc (labeled Pinot Bianco or Weissburgunder), pinot gris
(labeled Pinot Grigio or Rulander), pinot noir (labeled Pinot Nero or Blauburgunder), welschriesling (also labeled Riesling Italico), Riesling (labeled Riesling Renano or Rheinriesling), sauvignon blanc, schiava (also labeled Vernatsch), Sylvaner, and Gewürztraminer (also labeled Traminer Aromatico).
spumante is also made from some of these approved grapes.

Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc)There is much confusion about this white-wine grape. Pinot Blanc is not related to Chardonnay as once believed-it is part of the Pinot family of grapes.
Adding to the confusion about Pinot Blanc is that much of what is called Pinot Blanc in Australia is really Chardonnay, and some of the Pinot Blanc vines in California have been identified as Melon de Bourgogne. Pinot Blanc grapes produce comely dry white wines that are often compared to Chardonnay. They are, however, generally not as complex or flavorful as Chardonnay. Some of the best Pinot Blanc wines come from the Alto Adige region in Italy. Pinot Blanc
wines are noted for their fresh, yeasty, appley aroma, sometimes with hints of spice. Although not considered to age as well as Chardonnay, better Pinot Blancs that are aged for a few years take on delicious honey overtones. Because of the crisp fresh flavors and the grape's high acidity, Pinot Blanc is finding its
way into more and more sparkling wine.

Italian white winesItaly
Italy is the world's largest wine producer, with production just under 25 percent of the world's total. It's also the greatest wine consumer, although second to France in per capita consumption (Italy has a larger population). Italy's a land of vast geographic diversity ranging from its northern cool-temperature
vineyards in the foothills of the Alps, to the hot southland. Italy's been making wine for at least 3,500 years in a variety of styles (dry to sweet, still to fully sparkling) and in a variety of ways, such as the passito method, from many grape varieties not widely grown outside of Italy. The Italian varieties used for red and rosé wines include Aglianico, Barbera, Bonarda, Canaiolo, Dolcetto, Freisa, Grignolino, Lagrein, Lambrusco, Montepulciano, Nebbiolo, Raboso, Refosco (Mondeuse), Sangiovese, Schiava, and Teroldego. Those used for white wines are Albana, Bombino Bianco, Cortese, Garganega, Greco, Malvasia, Moscato (Muscat), Picolit, Pigato, Prosecco, Tocai friulano, Trebbiano, Verdicchio, Verduzzo, Vernaccia di Oristano, and Vernaccia di San Gimignano. Other European (primarily French and German) varieties grown here are Cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, Pinot Nero (pinot noir), syrah,
chardonnay, gewürztraminer, müller-thurgau, Pinot Bianco (pinot blanc), Pinot Grigio (Pinot Gris), Riesling Italico (Welschriesling), Riesling Renano (Riesling), Sauvignon Blanc, and Sylvaner. The Italians have implemented a system similiar to France's for improving the quality of their wines. At the
lowest level of this quality ranking are the vino da tavola wines, followed by IGT (indicazione geografica tipica) and then by the denominazione di origine controllata (doc), which is similiar to the French appellation d'origine contrôlée. Parameters for the Italian DOC, however, weren't considered strict enough so another higher level, denominazione di origine controllata e garantita (docg) was added. DOCG status, which requires stricter rules and controls, Italy
has twenty large growing regions, the boundaries of which define the area geographically, not by any common wine style, grape variety, or climate. Of these twenty regions, the four largest volume producers are Pulia, Sicily, Veneto, and Emilia-Romagna who make over 55 percent of the total wine production.
The order of these four regions (as to whose is first, second, etc.) changes depending on the year. The four top regions producing quality wines (those ranked as DOC or DOCG) are Veneto, Tuscany, Piedmont, and Trentino-Alto Adige. These four areas produce over 57 percent of the DOC/DOCG wines.

ItalyItaly is the world's largest wine producer, with production just under 25 percent of the world's total. It's also the greatest wine consumer, although second to
France in per capita consumption (Italy has a larger population). Italy's a land of vast geographic diversity ranging from its northern cool-temperature vineyards in the foothills of the Alps, to the hot southland. Italy's been making wine for at least 3,500 years in a variety of styles (dry to sweet, still to fully sparkling) and in a variety of ways, such as the passito method, from many grape varieties not widely grown outside of Italy.

Vitovska, VitovscaVitovska is a white-berried vine, which has always been cultivated in Friuli Venezia Giulia stretching across the coastal strip up to Istria. The name of the vine has Slovenian origin, and was often called Vitovska Garganija. The second name is not deceiving as the bunch of grapes, since the shape and size of its berry has nothing to do with the Venetian garganega. Some believe that the origin could be around the area of Vipacco, known as Vitovlie, but this vine is still found throughout the whole Karst region. The grounds are calcareous, porous and furrowed by subterranean watercourses; the maritime climate is mild along the shore, instead the mainland gets often struck by the "bora", a powerful local wind. The heavy limestone content of the soils likely gave the
zone its name (Karst is thought to be derived from a Celtic word meaning “land of rock”), and it lends the wines, both white and red, a firm acidic backbone and mouthwatering minerality. On the white side, as Vitovska, this means flinty, fragrant accompaniment to fresh seafood. Another anecdote:
people say that these wines, acknowledged as DOC denomination in 1985, would have medicinal properties due to the plenty of minerals of the soil.

AlsaceLocated on the German border in northeast France, Alsace is one of France's most beautiful wine regions. Its vineyards extend along the foothills of the Vosges Mountains, and numerous picturesque villages like Eguisheim, Kayserberg, and Riquewihr dot the landscape. Germany ruled this region from 1870 until 1919, and its influence persists not only in the Germanic names, but also in the tall, slender, green Mosel like bottles and
in the bias of the approved grape varieties-Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Sylvaner, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir and Muscat. Unlike the Germans, however, Alsace Vintners make dry wines with higher alcohol content and usually with riper, more scented fruit. Almost all Alsatian
wines are varietal wines and must be 100 percent of the chosen grape variety. The exception is Edelzwicker, which means "noble wine," and

difficulty in fully ripening in this climate (except during warmer years), Pinot Noir often appears as a rosé wine.

Bienvenues-Batard-Montrachet-and nearly half of each of two others-Le Montrachet and Bâtard-Montrachet. The best wines from Le Montrachet are viewed by many as the best DRY white wines in the world, although the wines from

Puligny-MontrachetA famous village in the Côte de Beaune section of the Côte d’Or in France's Burgundy region. The village itself is rather
unexciting, but it is regarded as the home of Chardonnay, a reputation based on the general consensus that the world's best dry white wines are produced here. Puligny-Montrachet AC contains two Grand Cru vineyards-Chevalier-Montrachet and
Bienvenues-Batard-Montrachet-and nearly half of each of two others-Le Montrachet and Bâtard-Montrachet. The best wines from Le Montrachet are viewed by many as the best DRY white wines in the world, although the wines from
Chevalier-Montrachet have supporters who feel the same. The other two grand cru aren't far behind, and the village's fourteen Premier Cru vineyards also produce superb wines. The best of these premier cru vineyards are Le Cailleret, Les
Combettes, Les Folatières, Les Pucelles, and Les Referts.

RheingauThe wines of this German Anbaugebiet (quality wine region) are considered by many to be some of the finest in Germany and therefore among the world's
great wines. Over 80 percent of the vineyards are planted with Riesling, Germany's premier variety. The Rheingau, whose vineyards cover the right or northerly bank of the Rhine River, starts just east of Hochheim and extends north to Lorch, with the principal portion situated between the villages of
rauenthal and rüdesheim. The climate and soil of this stretch of vineyards is ideal for Riesling. It's from this area that the Rheingau gets its reputation for wines that are generally rich, fruity, and full-bodied with a steely character. The better vintages can produce Auslese, Beerenauslese, and occasionally
Trockenbeerenauslese wines of remarkable quality. Even though these wines are very rich, they're balanced with good acidity and are capable of very long aging. The Rheingau's only bereich is johannisberg, which covers the entire region and includes ten grosslagen-Burgweg, Daubhaus, Deutelsberg,
Erntebringer, Gottesthal, Heiligensotck, Honigberg, Mehrhölzchen, Steil, and Steinmächer. Some of Germany's best-known wine estates are located here including Schloss Johannisberg, Schloss Schönborn, Schloss Reinhartshausen, and Schloss Vollrads.

International white winesÖsterreich
AustriaThe world of wine in Austria is similiar to that of Germany in many ways, but it's also quite different. Austria is generally warmer than
Germany, and therefore the grapes ripen more fully, which produces stronger wines. Austrians also generally like their wines drier. Since the wine scandal of 1985, where traces of poisonous diethylene glycol were found in wines that were supposed to contain only natural sugars, tougher laws (very similiar to those in Germany) were enacted. The Austrian quality categories are similiar to Germany's-Qualitätswein
Prädikatswein, Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Eiswein, Beerenauslese, Ausbruch (not found in Germany), and Trockenbeerenauslese. In most cases, the Austrian requirements are somewhat stricter-for example, higher required sugar levels. If the name of a ried ("vineyard") is used on
the label, 100 percent of the wine used must be from that vineyard location. This is also true for any local or regional name. If a variety or vintage appears on the label, 85 percent of the wine must come from the named grape or vintage. Per capita, Austrians consume over three times the wine of the United States. In fact, they consume more than they produce so wines must be imported to fill the gap. More than 80
percent of the Austrian wine produced is white. The most popular white grape is Grüner Veltliner, which produces pale, crisp, light- to medium-bodied, slightly spicý wines of good quality. Other popular white varieties are Gewürztraminer, Muscat, Riesling, Müller Thurgau,
Weissburgunder, Welschriesling, Rotgipfler, Zierflander, and Neuburger (a cross of Pinot Blanc and Sylvaner). The red wines, which are usually very light, are made from Blauburgunder (Pinot Noir), Portugiser, Blaufränkisch, and Zweigelt. Austria produces most of its wines

in the eastern part of the country. Over half is produced in the region of Niederösterreich (or Lower Austria), followed by Burgenland and then Steiermark (or Styria) and Vienna. Most of the wines produced from the various regions are dry. The exceptions are the sweet, botrytised wines
from Burgenland, which are sometimes compared to those from Sauternes.

Schiava - VernatschThis variety produces light-colored, fruity wines that are low in acid, tannins, and alcohol they should be drunk young. There are several
varieties of Schiava: Schiava Grossa (in German, Grossvernatsch), which is the most common; Schiava Grigia (or Grauvernatsch), which is more difficult to grow but produces better wines; and the low-yielding Schiava Gentile (also called Kleinvernatsch and Mittervernatsch).
Another clone called Tschaggel (or Tschaggelevernatsch) produces good wines but isn't widely planted because it's an inconsistent ripener. The best Schiava-based wines come from the DOC's Lago di Caldaro (Kalterersee, in German) and santa maddalena (or St. Magdalener). This
variety is also cultivated in Germany's württemberg region where its called Trollinger.

Trentino
Cabernet Sauvignon - Cabernet Franc - Merlot
TrentinoThis is a large doc that covers the Trentino province-it's the southern portion of Italy's Trentino-Alto Adige region. Most of the vineyards are scattered around the Adige River
Valley that meanders from north to south. The northern third of this area is much like the neighboring Alto Adige just to the north-both in the Austrian culture and in the wine. From the city of Trento south it becomes much more Italian. The Trentino DOC authorizes seventeen varietal wines-Cabernet (from Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc),
Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay, Lagrein, Marzemino, Merlot, Muscat (both Moscato Giallo and Moscato Rosa), Müller-thurgau, Noisiola, Pinot Bianco (Pinot Blanc), Pinot Grigio (Pinot Gris), Pinot Nero (Pinot Noir), Riesling Italico (welschriesling), Riesling Renano (riesling), and Traminer Aromatico (gewürztraminer). There's also bianco (made from a blend of white grapes), rosso (made from a red-grape mixture), and Vin Santo (made from Nosiola grapes). The Trentino province also has
several individual DOCs including casteller, Sorni, Teroldego rotaliano, and Valdadige.

Elisabetta Foradori and the TeroldegoThe cliffs of the Adige Valley change their appearance as the light shifts across them: awe inspiring when they are veiled by shade or darkened by a heavy sky; and enchanting
when the sun shines on them, as they are tinted with delicate shades of pink. The river too changes its mood as the weather changes: when there is bad weather, its rough waters become a whirlpool of green and blue, while on calm evenings they become a sparkling silver ribbon. No one with a sensitive soul can cross this land without being touched by
its beauty. After the narrow Salorno Gorge, visitors travelling from the north are welcomed by the marvellous sight of a wide valley. Vineyards and orchards are scattered among these rocky outcrops. Near San Michele all’Adige, on the right bank of the Adige River, a wide plain unfolds beneath the mountains: its name is Campo Rotaliano. This is where the Teroldego, one of the country’s best grapes, thrives. Despite its charm and beauty, this stretch of country is still waiting to be discovered in all its wonder. It is no coincidence
that this striking landscape marks the linguistic and cultural boundary between the Tyrol and Trentino, between north and south - an invisible border, yet nevertheless a border. This is where Elisabetta Foradori was born. The Noce valley, Campo Rotaliano with the towns of Mezzolombardo and Mezzocorona, has seen tribes and rulers come and go –
Rhaeto-Etruscan settlers, the Romans, Celts, Longobards, Franks, Tyroleans, Austrians, Bavarians, Italians. Whether conquerors or settlers, traders or mercenaries, all have left

Barbaresco DOCG
One of the small number of DOCG areas in Italy, Barbaresco shares this status in northwestern Italy's Piedmont region
with Barolo, Asti Spumante, and Gattinara. The DOCG zone encompasses the villages of Barbaresco, Tresio, and Neive,
just east of Alba. The wines, which are made from the Nebbiolo grape, must be aged for 2 years, one of which is in wooden
barrels. A riserva must be aged for 3 years, one of those in wood. Considered some of Italy's best, these wines have rich,
spicy flavors, and, although, they have a perfumed sweetness. Barbaresco wines are often compared to Barolo wines
because they're both made from Nebbiolo grapes. In the comparison, Barbaresco wines are usually regarded as more
elegant and refined; the Barolos are thought to be more robust and longer-lived.

Castello dei RampollaNext to the legendary "-aia" trifecta of Sassicaia, Ornellaia, and Solaia, there are the overshadowed wines of Castello dei Rampolla. Absent here are
the marketing prowess and glitz, but behold, this is one the most highly regarded wines of Toscana and is the choice of winemakers! The Vigna d'Alceo is consistently a Three Glass winner and recipient of 95+ points. The cellars of the Rampolla winery, near Panzano in central Tuscany, date back to the 13th century. Situated on 42 hectares of calcareous soil about 360 meters above sea level, these vineyards are ideal for Sangiovese, which here achieves particular vigour and potential for long-aging. The di Napoli family combines biodynamic methods in the vineyard with its modern, well-equipped cellars to produce world class wines with the famous consultant oenologist, Giacomo Tachis. The Chianti Classico bottling accounts for approximately 100,000 of the total 150,000 bottle production. The remainder is divided between the Riserva, the Sammarco and their white,
Trebianco.

GravnerClay amphorae are believed by many to be the first tanks ever to hold wine—historians have traced back more than 4,000 years with documents from Georgia (formerly in the USSR) that reveal this ancient practice. In contrast, today's Friulian winemakers
have embraced words like stainless steel, temperature control, and barrique. Ironically, it was Josko Gravner who helped pioneer the use of these tools. However, the iconoclastic and ever-changing Gravner has taken on a new "old" approach. Contradiction? No. Experimentation? Yes. The relentless passion for perfection through experimentation changed his philosophy, as Gravner was among the first to combine bio-dynamic winemaking with a more traditional, unintrusive style in this white wine epicenter. Gravner is a proponent in the use of open-top wood vats, extended maceration on the grape skins, no added yeasts, no sulphur
dioxide, and no temperature control—purely natural winemaking. This is Josko's current position, and he employs both amphorae and large oak barrels to make his three wines; Collio "Breg," Ribolla Gialla, and "Rosso Gravner." The grapes for these wines come
from his 18 hectares of vineyards in Gorizia (Oslavia) that straddle the Italian-Slovenian border. It is here that he exercises his current approach to wine: "I am convinced that wine is a product of Nature, not of Man, whose role therefore is to accompany its

FontodiThe Fontodi estate is located in Panzano, almost at the centre of the Chianti Classico region. Like Felsina, which claims an Etruscan origin for its name, Fontodi also has a long history; vines have been cultivated here since the time of the Roman empire, and documents prove there was vinification here as far back as the 16th Century, at a farmhouse then referred to as Case Via. The current owners, the Manetti family, also have many centuries of history in Chianti, although not with viticulture. For three
hundred years this family has been renowned for the manufacture of terracotta, and it was not until 1968 that the family decided to move into wine, with the purchase of Fontodi. Currently in charge of the 67 ha estate which lies just south of Panzanno, at the heart of the Chianti Classico DOCG, is Giovanni Manetti, aided by cousin Marco. Giovanni's first involvement in the family winery was in 1979, and before long he had hired reputable oenologist Franco Bernabei; together they have been
instrumental in upgrading many practices at Fontodi. A most significant and recent development was the construction of an ultra-modern cantina, completed in 1998. The fruit from the vineyards, which lie in a south-facing amphitheatre known as the Conca d'Oro (which translates as golden shell) on marl and clay galestro soils, are
fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel in this new winery, with punching down of the cap to increase extraction. Once finished it matures in wood in the brand new barrel cellar, the transfer process being gravitational rather than by pumping. All the wines are aged in French oak, with the premier cuvées going into new
oak, and the lesser wines into the older barrels

Romano Dal FornoRomano Dal Forno is Veneto's 'Grape King' and also one of the kings of Amarone, Italy's great 'Monster' wine. This bold statement ignites the debate: Dal Forno or Quintarelli, who makes the better wine? Both produce world-class cellar wines, and at this level it’s a taster’s preference: do you like Dal Forno’s modern, hedonistic
expression of the ancient grapes or the austere, rustic style of sire Guiseppe Quintarelli? The one sure thing is that these two are in a superior class all to themselves. Both produce “revelation” wines – the kind that will change how you look beneath the colors in a glass.The great richness of Dal Forno's wines is derived from the extremely low yields of this artisan's 12.5-hectare estate outside the Classico zone. His dense, creamy Valpolicella is among the best of the Veneto, and his 'Nettare' is part of the
comeback of garganega, the grape behind Soave that we find here formally dressed as a white passito dessert wine. In fact, all of his are "experience" wines, transporting you to a new level of wine appreciation.

SassicaiaSassicaia; the story
As a student in Pisa during the 1920's, the Marquis Mario Incisa della Rocchetta dreamed of creating a "noble" wine. Like most of Italian aristocracy at the time, his taste in wine ran strongly to fine Bordeaux. After settling with his wife, Clarice, into their Tuscan estate at Tenuta San Guido on the Mediterranean Coast, he experimented with several French grape varieties and concluded, “the bouquet I was looking for” was found in the Cabernet. A wine that had Cabernet Sauvignon as its primary
component represented a radical shift from the traditional Tuscan and Piedmontese varietals of Sangiovese and Nebbiolo. No one had ever considered making a wine crafted along Bordeaux lines on Italian soil, much less in a region not yet established viticulturally. In addition to the Cabernet’s satisfactory bouquet, the Marquis’
decision to plant this grape variety at Tenuta San Guido was influenced by the Tuscan location’s similarity to Graves in Bordeaux. “Graves” means “gravel” in French, and similarly, the earth at Tenuta San Guido gave Sassicaia its name, which in the Tuscan dialect means “stony ground”. However, accustomed to the light, local wines, consumers did not respond well to the first vintages of Sassicaia. Wines made from the more complex Cabernet Sauvignon grapes take more time to mature and develop.
Subsequently, from 1948 to 1960, Sassicaia was consumed only at the estate. Each year, a small number of cases were laid down in the cellars of Castiglioncello. The Marquis discovered that as the years went by, however, the wine greatly improved. As is often the case with wines of great pedigree, those things originally considered
defects turned into virtues over time. Soon, friends and relatives were urging him to pursue his passion and to perfect his revolutionary style of winemaking. In 1965, he planted two more vineyards comprised of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc; the new “Sassicaia” vineyard was situated approximately 800 feet lower than the
original Cabernet vineyard near Castiglioncello, and “Aianova” was slightly more elevated and thus exposed to the weather. Eventually, all of the wine produced on the estate came to be known by the name of Sassicaia. The 1968 vintage of Sassicaia was the first to be offered on the open market, and it was as well received as the Premier Crus from Bordeaux. In subsequent years the cellars were moved to temperature-controlled quarters, wood fermentation vats were replaced with stainless steel ones, and
French oak barriques were used for the ageing process. The Marquis’ use of Cabernet grapes and his implementation of the barriques aging process soon spread throughout Italy. Sassicaia was the first Italian wine to successfully establish itself abroad, and is almost universally recognized as the father of the new Italian wine family or simply

Sassicaia was the first Italian wine to successfully establish itself abroad, and is almost universally recognized as the father of the new Italian wine family or simply
the Super Tuscan Pioneer. Mario Incisa della Rocchetta’s planting is now considered the birthplace of Italian Cabernet. The new plantings and improved methods of vinification produced stunning results, and experts worldwide took notice. Here are a few examples: At a 1978 “Decanter Magazine” tasting in London, a panel including
Hugh Johnson, Serena Sutcliffe, and Clive Coates declared the 1972 Sassicaia the best Cabernet Sauvignon in a field of 33 wines from 11 countries. Hugh Johnson’s Pocket Wine Book, 1982 edition, called Sassicaia "Italy's best wine". The 1982 Sassicaia received the 1987 Vinarius Wine of the Year award. The marquis Mario Incisa
della Rocchetta passed away in 1983. His son, Marquis Nicolò Incisa della Rocchetta, now oversees all estate operations.

Pomerol ACLocated on the east side of France's Dordogne River, this is the smallest of the fine-wine-producing districts of the Bordeaux region. It's also the only district not to have rated its Châteaus in some official classification. Because it's not near the better-known districts of médoc and graves, Pomerol didn't gain much of an international following until the 1960s. Now its wines, led by those from the famous Château Pétrus, bring some of the
highest prices in all of Bordeaux. The Pomerol area's 1,800 acres are planted with Merlot and Cabernet Franc.

Saint-ÉmilionThe village of Saint-Émilion is quite picturesque and beautiful with its medieval walls and buildings, its undulating hills, and the fields of vines that grow right up to the ancient walls. Saint-Émilion is northeast of the city of Bordeaux and sits on the east side of the Dordogne River next to the smaller, but well-known, Pomerol ac.
Grapes have been cultivated here since at least the second century. Saint-Émilion is the second most important growing area in bordeaux after the médoc, and because it's not broken up into smaller appellations like the Médoc (such as Margaux ac, Pauillac ac, Saint-Estèphe ac, and Saint-Julien ac), more fine wine is sold under the
Saint-Émilion appellation than any other. Unlike the Médoc where Cabernet Sauvignon reigns, Merlot is the dominant grape in Saint-Émilion because of the clay soil.

Saint-Émilion appellation than any other. Unlike the Médoc where Cabernet Sauvignon reigns, Merlot is the dominant grape in Saint-Émilion because of the clay soil. Cabernet Franc is the next most popular grape, followed by Cabernet Sauvignon and some Malbec, Because of the prevalent use of Merlot, the Saint-Émilion wines are
generally softer and more drinkable at an earlier age than those from the Médoc. However, wines from good vintages of top Châteaus like ausone and Cheval Blanc have considerable aging ability. Saint-Émilion was passed over in the classification of 1855, which established the cru classé Châteaus of the Médoc, and it wasn't until 1954 that an official classification for Saint-Émilion estates was developed. Unlike the Médoc, Saint-Émilion's classification system was set up so that it could be revised every 10 years, at which time Châteaus could be elevated or downgraded. Revisions were done in 1969 and 1985, and another is scheduled in the 1994 timeframe. The 1985 classification lists eleven Châteaus as premiers grands crus classés, the highest level. Two of the eleven, Château Ausone and Château Cheval Blanc, were set above all
the rest into Category A.

Château MargauxChâteau Margaux is one of only four Châteaus (along with Haut-Brion, Lafite-Rothschild, and Latour) to receive a premier cru (first growth) ranking in the classification of 1855 (Château Mouton-Rothschild was upgraded to premier cru status in 1973). It's also the only premier cru in the Margaux ac. This estate's exalted reputation dates back
many centuries. In the fifteenth century the highly regarded wine from this estate was known as Margou or Margous. In the eighteenth century, Thomas Jefferson stated that the 1784 vintage from Château Margaux was one of Bordeaux's best. In 1978 Château Margaux emerged from over a decade of mediocre wines to reestablish itself as one of the
premier Bordeaux châteaus-a result of new ownership (the Mentzelopoulos family) and extensive renovation. As a whole, the wines from Margaux during the 1980s might be considered the best of any château in Bordeaux. These wines are known for their magnificent perfumed bouquets and for being rich and full-bodied. The best vintages, such as
the 1986, can last for 40 to 50 years. The estate consists of nearly 210 acres and annually produces about 25,000 to 30,000 cases of red wine and another 3,000 to 5,000 cases of dry white wine. Red wine is made from about 75 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 20 percent Merlot, and small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The white wine called
Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux is made from 100 percent sauvignon blanc grown on a small parcel to the north near the commune of Soussans. The Château uses a

La Côte de Beaune
Côte de BeauneThe southern half of Burgundy's famous Côte d'Or, which contains the grand cru, premier cru, and village vineyards responsible for many of the renowned
Burgundy wines. The Côte de Beaune includes twenty different villages, seventeen with their own appellations-Aloxe-Corton, Auxey-Duresses, Beaune, Blagny, Chassagne-Montrachet, Chorey-lès-Beaune, Landoix-Serrigny, Meursault, Monthélie, Pernand-Vergelesses, Pommard, Puligny-Montrachet, Saint-Aubin, Saint-Romain, Santenay, Savigny-lès-Beaune, and Volnay. Three other villages-Cheilly-lès-Maranges, Dezizes-lès-Maranges, and Sampigny-lès-Maragnes-are grouped
in a separate appellation Les Maranges. The Côte de Beaune area is well known for both its red wines, made from Pinot Noir grapes, and white wines, made from Chardonnay. Even though the Côte de Beaune produces superb red wines, led by the grand cru Corton, they are somewhat overshadowed by the red wines from the Côte de Nuit in the northern half of the Côte d'Or. However, the white wines from the Côte de Beaune area are considered to be the best in the world.
The superstars are the wines from the grands crus of Montrachet, Bâtard-Montrachet, Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet, Chevalier-Montrachet, Corton-Charlemagne, and Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet, and from the numerous outstanding premiers crus vineyards. Wines from individual villages like Meusault also

They're quite different from the wines from the village's other grand cru vineyard, Musigny, which are lighter, more elegant and earlier maturing. Most critics agree that Bonnes Mares AC red wines can be some of the

Clos de Vougeot ACA very famous Grand Cru vineyard located in the commune of Vougeot in the Côte de Nuits district of France's Burgundy region. The Cistercian monks first planted
portions of the vineyard in the twelfth century, adding to it during the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Its 125 walled acres make it the largest single vineyard in the Côte d’or. Only red wines from Pinot Noir grapes are produced. Although Clos de Vougeot's reputation has been stellar in the past, today the wines can vary considerably-choosing a wine from this vineyard isn't easy. Clos de Vougeot is often used as the example of Burgundy's fragmented ownership patterns. There are approximately eighty
owners of individual parcels within Clos de Vougeot, and the location of the parcels within the vineyard have an impact on the quality of the wine. The upper portion of the vineyard is capable of producing the best wines, followed by the middle section. While the lower portion has poor drainage and is the least effective land, better producers can coax excellent wines out of it. Conversely, there are examples of less-than-impressive wines from the upper section. The bottom line is that choosing a good Clos de
Vougeot wine requires knowledge of both the producer and the vineyard parcel.

Grands Échézeaux Grand Cru | Domaine de La Romanée-Conti 1988 786,00
Grands-Echézeaux ACA prestigious Grand Cru. Although it's often grouped with the famous grands crus of the neighboring village of Vosne-Romanée, Grand Echézeaux is
physically located in the village of Flagey-Echézeaux. It consists of 22.6 acres, all planted with Pinot Noir grapes. Grands-Echézeaux red wines don't quite have the acclaim of some of the neighboring grands crus (such as Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, and Richebourg), but some wine lovers think that makes them a relative bargain. The wines can be very rich and full-bodied, with concentrated aromas and flavors. Grands-Echézeaux AC wines are generally
superior to those from the neighboring grand cru, Echézeaux.
Gevrey-Chambertin ACThis village is in the northern part (the Côte de Nuits) of the Côte d’Or district. It's one of the larger villages in this acclaimed area and contains approximately 1,460
vineyard acres, all focused on producing red wines from Pinot Noir grapes. At the top quality level are the village's nine Grand Cru vineyards-Chambertin, Chambertin-Clos De Bèze, Chapelle-Chambertin, Charmes-Chambertin, Griotte-Chambertin, Latricières-Chambertin, Mazis-Chambertin, Mazoyères-Chambertin, And Ruchottes-Chambertin. The Chambertin grand cru is so famous that the village, formerly called simply Gevrey, added Chambertin to its name in 1847. Following the grands crus in descending order of quality are the Premier Cru vineyards, which are followed by the Gevry-Chambertin AC and then the Côte de Nuits AC. Several premiers crus are thought to deserve grand cru status (if there's ever a reevaluation) including Clos Saint-Jacques, Combe aux Moines, Les Cazetiers, and Les Verroilles. As with much of Burgundy, top producers from premier cru vineyards often turn out better wines than the less accomplished winemakers from grand cru vineyards. In sharp contrast to
the highly rated red wines from the large grouping of grands crus and premiers crus, some critics think that, of all the Côte d'Or villages, Gevrey-Chambertin AC produces wines that are the most widely varying in quality.

Vin SantoThe wine is made by drying grapes either by hanging them up or by laying them on trays in airy rooms or barns. After 3 or 4 months the semidried grapes are full of
concentrated sugars and flavours. They're pressed and then fermented in small oak or chestnut barrels (called caratelli), which contain a small amount of madre-thick wine left from the prior year. The wine is kept in these barrels for 2 to 3-sometimes as long as 6-years. The barrels, which are not completely full, are exposed to varying
temperatures-hot in the summer, cool in the winter. This oxidation treatment is part of the aging process and produces wine with a characteristic nutty-caramel flavour and a deep golden color.

Château d'Yquem When the wines of Sauternes were ranked in the Classification of 1855, one wine, Château d'Yquem, stood out from all the rest. It was elevated to a class all by itself-known variously as Premier Grand Cru, Grand Premier Cru, and Premier Cru Supérieur. Although Château d'Yquem is allowed to label its wines "Premier Grand Cru Classé," it doesn't. Today, this Château undisputedly still makes the best wines in the area, and some feel in all of Bordeaux (including the red wines). In addition to Château d'Yquem's microclimate, it's the meticulous selection process that occurs every step of the way that makes these wines so great. If the grapes aren't perfectly ripe, they simply aren't picked. This necessitates multiple passes through the vineyards-up to ten to twelve times during
some vintages. In difficult years the picking process itself can take 8 to 9 weeks. If the picked grapes aren't of high enough quality, they're rejected. Even after the wines have been made and aged in oak, some barrels may be rejected before finishing the wines. In a few years-like 1978 and 1979-over 60 percent
of the wine was rejected as unsuitable. Some vintages (1964, 1972, and 1974, for example) were rejected totally, and no Château d'Yquem wine was produced at all. Rejected wines are sold to other vintners. Château d'Yquem declares that, because of this selective process, only one glass of wine per vine is

Château d'Yquem When the wines of Sauternes were ranked in the Classification of 1855, one wine, Château d'Yquem, stood out from all the rest. It was elevated to a class all by itself-known variously as Premier Grand Cru, Grand Premier Cru, and Premier Cru Supérieur. Although Château d'Yquem is allowed to label its wines "Premier Grand Cru Classé," it doesn't. Today, this Château undisputedly still makes the best wines in the area, and some feel in all of Bordeaux (including the red wines). In addition to Château d'Yquem's microclimate, it's the meticulous selection process that occurs every step of the way that makes these wines so great. If the grapes aren't perfectly ripe, they simply aren't picked. This necessitates multiple passes through the vineyards-up to ten to twelve times during
some vintages. In difficult years the picking process itself can take 8 to 9 weeks. If the picked grapes aren't of high enough quality, they're rejected. Even after the wines have been made and aged in oak, some barrels may be rejected before finishing the wines. In a few years-like 1978 and 1979-over 60 percent
of the wine was rejected as unsuitable. Some vintages (1964, 1972, and 1974, for example) were rejected totally, and no Château d'Yquem wine was produced at all. Rejected wines are sold to other vintners. Château d'Yquem declares that, because of this selective process, only one glass of wine per vine is
produced. One consequence of this careful selection is that the wines are very expensive. Although Château d'Yquem has about 250 acres of vineyards, annual production is only 5,000 to 6,000 cases of sweet Sauternes AC wines. The grapes used are approximately 80 percent Sémillon and 20 percent

Sauternes ACFamous appellation that produces some of the most outstanding sweet wines in the world. The Sauternes AC lies within the Graves district of France's Bordeaux region, approximately 25 miles southeast of the city of Bordeaux. The designated area includes the five communes of Barsac, Bommes, Fargues, Preignac, and
Sauternes. Barsac is unusual in that it has its own appellation and its wines can be labeled either Barsac ac or Sauternes AC; however, none of the other wines can be labeled Barsac AC. The dominant grape in Sauternes is Sémillon, although the final blend generally includes some Sauvignon Blanc and, occasionally, small amounts
of Muscadelle. In good vintages, this appellation is the lucky recipient of the right climatic conditions to infect the grapes with botrytis cinerea. This beneficial mold causes the grapes to shrivel, leaving sugar-laden fruit full of rich, concentrated flavors. Botrytis cinerea doesn't always develop and, when it does, it's sometimes very late, rewarding only those daring vineyard owners who haven't picked their grapes (but who have risked losing the entire crop due to inclement weather). The best Sauternes wines come from low-yielding vines that have been hand-picked (some as many as twelve separate times) to ensure that the grapes are not culled before
reaching the perfect degree of required ripeness. The resulting classic Sauternes wine is rich and sweet-the botrytis cinerea contributes a desirable honeyed and complex nature to both the aroma and flavor. Châteaus don't produce sweet Sauternes AC wines every vintage. If the grapes do not progress properly-through suitable ripening
and botrytis infection-a Château may make fully dry wines and sell them as bordeaux ac or bordeaux supérier ac wines. Some Sauternes properties started using cryoextraction in the late 1980s in an effort to produce good sweet wines from poorer vintages. The Sauternes Châteaus were ranked in the classification of 1855. Château d'yquem was elevated to a class all by itself-known variously as premier grand cru, grand premier cru, and premier cru superieur-and is allowed to put premier grand cru classé on its label (although it doesn't). It undisputedly makes the best wines in the area and some feel they're the best in all Bordeaux. The
classification also named eleven premiers crus and fifteen deuxièmes crus. Some of the other Châteaus producing marvelous wines are Climens, Coutet, Guiraud, Lafaurie-Peyraguey, Rabaud-Promis, Rayne-Vigneau, Raymond-Lafon, Rieussec, Suduiraut, and La Tour Blanche.

Late harvestA wine term referring to wines made from grapes picked toward the end of the harvest (usually late fall) when they are very ripe. Such grapes have a higher sugar content minimum of 24° Brix/Babo (Each degree Brix is equavalent to 1 gram of sugar per 100 grams of
grape juice), particularly if they've been infected with Botrytis Cinerea, a desirable fungus that shrivels the grape and thereby concentrates the sugar. The terms Select Late Harvest and Special Select Late Harvest refer to wines made from grapes picked with higher sugar-content minimums-28° and 35° Brix, respectively. A high Brix measurement can translate to a sweet wine, to a wine that's high in alcohol, or to one with both characteristics. Generally, Select Late Harvest and Special Select Late harvest wines have a residual sugar content, some ranging as high as 28 percent. Late harvest wines are noted for their rich, deep, honeyed flavors and are customarily served
after the main course, often with dessert or with cheeses such as Roquefort. The most popular grapes used for these dessert wines are
Residual sugarThe natural grape sugar that is either unfermented at the end of the fermentation process or added back into the wine, as with adosage added to a sparkling wine. In some cases there is so much natural sugar that fermentation can't complete its process, as is the case with some dessert wines like Germany's trokenbeerenauslese. In other instances, fermentation is purposefully arrested by adding a soupçon of sulphur dioxide, which inhibits the yeast, or by adding alcohol (as is done with fortified wines), which raises
the alcohol to a level (15 to 16 percent) above which the yeast cannot work.

PortoA sweet fortified wine most often served after a meal. Port originated in northern Portugal's Douro Valley and the best ports
still come from that area. The name port derives from the fact that these wines are shipped out of the Portugese city of Oporto and, in fact, such wines (true ports) are labeled Porto rather than port. Today there's a specific demarcated region (Port
DOC) in the Douro Valley. This region has established rules for producing quality port wines. To make port, a neutral grape alcohol is added to the wine partway through fermentation. This stops the fermentation process while the wine still has
plenty of natural sweetness (9 to 10 percent residual sugar) and boosts the alcohol level to 18 to 20 percent. The wines are then generally shipped from the Douro Valley across the river to the town of Vila Nova de Gaia, which is replete with lodges
(warehouses) for aging the wines. Wines left to age in the Douro often develop what's called the Douro bake, a baked character that's a result of the hotter climate there. Although there are many types of port wine (which can make labels
confusing), there are four basic categories-vintage, ruby, tawny, and white. Vintage ports are regarded by many as the best; they're also the most expensive.
