worldwide wine market as a whole mostly due to its unique volcanic wine production.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Looking outside Sicily’s volcanic wines
though one will discover a breadth of unique grapes found throughout the island
including the Zibibbo grape I’m featuring today.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b><span>What is a Zibibbo?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span><o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Synonymous with the name Muscat of Alexandria, the Zibibbo grape’s
origins believe to hail from Egypt and were brought over to Sicily by the
Arabs. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s an ancient grape that has
been cultivated for over 5,000 years. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
name Zibibbo comes from the Arabic word, Z’bib, which translates to dried
grape.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is a grape that shows
beautifully not only when produced from dried grapes that result in a sweeter style wine, but
also as a dry style white wine like the one I'm sharing today.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Zibibbo is considered an aromatic grape due to its high
levels of organic compounds called terpenes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Other grapes that you may be able to relate to that carry intense,
floral aromas that also contain high levels of terpenes are Riesling and
Gewurztraminer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Before I knew the breakdown of the blend today that I’m sharing, some of the
floral notes of this wine reminded me of a Gewurztraminer, one of
my favorite white grapes due to my love of NY Finger Lakes wines.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You’ll pick up notes of stone fruits, orange
blossoms and jasmine in the aromas of Zibibbo.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It’s a resilient grape that does well in the hot temperatures of Sicily’s
climate.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It also is a drought resistant
grape.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p><b>Firriato's Calamoni di Favignana Estate </b></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p>I had the luxury to tour the Firriato wine estates spread from the western side of Sicily to the eastern side right before covid hit near the end of 2019. Firriato's Calamoni Estate is located on the island of Favignana. Vines had disappeared off this island over a century ago and today Favignana is the only vineyard present in the Egadi archipelago.</o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p>The vineyards are located only steps from the sea and surrounded by neptune grass, which is a marine plant that acts as a natural fertilizer providing nutrients to the limestone soil. Sitting right off the water these vineyards receive a nice marine, Mediterranean breeze that gives a hint of salinity to the wines along with very aromatic notes. to read more about Firriato please reference my previous blog on Favignana,</o:p></span><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p> </o:p></span><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://bit.ly/36B1NSM">Firriato's Calamoni Estate: The Only Winery of the Aegadian Islands</a>.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b><span>The Wine<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">This week I sampled the <b>2018 Firriato La Muciara
Terre<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Siciliane IGT</b> which is a blend
of 60% Zibibbo, 20% Grillo and 20% Catarratto.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This wine was softly pressed and went through fermentation for 12
days.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It spent 6 months on the lees with
an additional 18 months in the bottle.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A
brilliant straw-colored wine with golden highlights.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Intense florals of stone fruit with some
tropical notes. Medium-bodied with the tropical fruits carrying through to the
palate creating a roundness on the wine with a touch of salinity.<o:p></o:p></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5GSSaNOkaOdiLwoARPKLChm-GcXcZpZh6TVpsEynXwjunbrJhZRHok6dr4cDHFDHPG1kFmd9Vj3YTGmoYbNJ9LbraRoS4XBNZzAcbDMdp_JtqXK9jDaxSmccAQUeajtL6TlX4XFcv55H1RM4iNHIGgscleT3imGuQW_lwPHqzjnxRK6JVOGGF1pnUVyg/s2560/2017-Firriato-La-Muciara-Terre-Siciliane-IGT.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span><img alt="2017 Firriato La Muciara Favinia Terre Siciliane IGT" border="0" data-original-height="2560" data-original-width="1920" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5GSSaNOkaOdiLwoARPKLChm-GcXcZpZh6TVpsEynXwjunbrJhZRHok6dr4cDHFDHPG1kFmd9Vj3YTGmoYbNJ9LbraRoS4XBNZzAcbDMdp_JtqXK9jDaxSmccAQUeajtL6TlX4XFcv55H1RM4iNHIGgscleT3imGuQW_lwPHqzjnxRK6JVOGGF1pnUVyg/w480-h640/2017-Firriato-La-Muciara-Terre-Siciliane-IGT.jpg" title="bottle of Firriato Favinia" width="480" /></span></a></span></div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b><span>Food Pairing with Zibibbo</span></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">When I consider pairing wines with food I always think of
where the wine originates from. What is the typical cuisine of the region?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With many of Sicily’s indigenous white grapes
you can’t seem to go wrong with a seafood pairing and creating a dish with the
abundance of vegetables grown throughout the island.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It had been awhile since I had made some fish
cakes and these are always a big hit in my home so I figured I couldn’t go
wrong.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This pairing worked out
great!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was concerned about the body
and flavors of the wine with some of the flavors of the fish cakes, mostly the
mustard added to the fish cakes but it was so minuscule in the grand scheme
that all the flavors blended nicely together.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">The fish cakes, which I made with cod, were an easy
preparation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I poached the fish in some
water and milk on the stove with some added bay leaves, lemon and salt until cooked
through.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In the meantime, I blended
together a cup of bread crumbs, 2 eggs, garlic, a tablespoon of mayonnaise, a teaspoon
of mustard with some added kosher salt and pepper.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Once the fish was finished and cooled, I
blended all the ingredients with my hands forming the cakes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I cooked them in some extra virgin olive oil
for about 4-5 minutes each side.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Easy
peasy!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So try some Zibibbo or any of
Sicily’s indigenous white grapes, cook up some fish cakes and let me know
what you think.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><i><span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWyCe7SxDt4JNQam0pvfO4atipHzvwbKSONP75sagUZ7EwONcXX0O7jopN4LpB2hyphenhyphensqUsp4-_revASEShiEsHTowcgsEeS3bKPN1CNVBOgmrh3LNVPixjuMDmznpEQp8Qs2-8rbfYumor6VLZ7vow8sDI6KW3a34fQMMohnp6O6pARjqzn-eUUSNpxKrU/s2560/wine-pairing-fish-cakes-with-Zibibbo-Sicilian-wine.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="fish cakes pairing with Sicilian Zibibbo wine from Firriato Favinia" border="0" data-original-height="2560" data-original-width="1920" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWyCe7SxDt4JNQam0pvfO4atipHzvwbKSONP75sagUZ7EwONcXX0O7jopN4LpB2hyphenhyphensqUsp4-_revASEShiEsHTowcgsEeS3bKPN1CNVBOgmrh3LNVPixjuMDmznpEQp8Qs2-8rbfYumor6VLZ7vow8sDI6KW3a34fQMMohnp6O6pARjqzn-eUUSNpxKrU/w480-h640/wine-pairing-fish-cakes-with-Zibibbo-Sicilian-wine.jpg" title="Fish cakes with Firriato white wine" width="480" /></a></span></i></span></div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><i><span>Do you have a favorite Sicilian white grape?<o:p></o:p></span></i></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">This month our Italian Food, Wine & Travel group, hosted by Camilla the Culinary Cam, featured indigenous grapes of Italy.

what are you waiting for? If you have
yet to jump on the rosé bus then there is no better time like the present. You can find many Italian rosé wines from
northern to southern Italy utilizing a variety of native grapes. Today’s rosé feature will be based on the
Montepulciano grape, Abruzzo’s signature red grape, from Tenuta Agricole Masciarelli. With
Valentine’s Day right around the corner the enticing pink hues and flavor
profile of Abruzzo’s rosé will be sure to please yourself or that special loved
one in your life.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b>Montepulciano as a grape in rosé wines<o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">For those of us that are regular rosé drinkers or Italian
wine lovers at that, if you’ve had the opportunity to drink rosé in Abruzzo you’ve
probably had cerasuolo d’abruzzo.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Although, this wine I’m sharing today doesn’t fall under the Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo
DOC.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It Is part of the Colline Teatine
IGT.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Per wine searcher, the name Teatine
is believed to be named after Teate, which was the name for Chieti in Roman times.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
Colline Teatine IGT was created in 1995 and covers the hilly terroir around
Chieti.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Here the hills meet the
foothills of the Central Appenines as well as the Maiella Mountains.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The cooling breezes from the mountain range
along with its close proximity to the Adriatic Sea is what creates ideal
conditions with its Mediterranean climate.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixTb_gnBDKjfu7NLMiIFdfsT4IzT_6KKlSVefM6CjQMeghNFIvhDOFGikggWCgk5geEKiia7BxqDDF8zu6-c-40-fDmJ5la3LN50wyNXXWDeekZk71ymEemXRIdx4R_26aUacEZ-K8WtB0Wbg8K1fwT5ixkU-Vspjb43fekm0AuvYMDTTw9oZoZZezECA/s1637/Masciarelli-in-Abruzzo.PNG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="map of Masciarelli in Chieti Abruzzo" border="0" data-original-height="837" data-original-width="1637" height="328" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixTb_gnBDKjfu7NLMiIFdfsT4IzT_6KKlSVefM6CjQMeghNFIvhDOFGikggWCgk5geEKiia7BxqDDF8zu6-c-40-fDmJ5la3LN50wyNXXWDeekZk71ymEemXRIdx4R_26aUacEZ-K8WtB0Wbg8K1fwT5ixkU-Vspjb43fekm0AuvYMDTTw9oZoZZezECA/w640-h328/Masciarelli-in-Abruzzo.PNG" title="Map of Abruzzo with Masciarelli" width="640" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Montepulciano not only makes great red wines, but rosé wines
as well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Even though Montepulciano I
think really claims it’s home in the Abruzzo region, you can also find
Montepulciano produced throughout a number of other regions in Italy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It tops the charts for Italian grapes
produced throughout the country.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Montepulciano
grape has thick skins that creates wines with deep colors and concentration and
is part of the reason it does well as a rosé.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This grape needs a long growing season to reach it’s full maturity.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You’ll see a variety of colors in rosé wines made
from Montepulciano based on the producer and how long they choose to macerate
the skins with the juice, although not much time is really need before it
imparts its rich colors and flavors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXtC_8fP1D3XUMt53oSWgwrSoTxmSidy_9Go1dzrekWYZDLn2G4ND3RA5s55kRDWfE9GvzLW1idgY7NJHXkFgsYgam0w9L3Hp_pa2q7rk7xt9PZ7_SmAXHiWjUaE6nLhPjWJVBwd7DTW6cAZmyjwy866OMHYd9rUFmHHKEYDRyxGA9syu7xwnDGAIH0_s/s3500/Masciarelli-vineyards-at-Harvest.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Masciarelli vineyards in Abruzzo" border="0" data-original-height="2332" data-original-width="3500" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXtC_8fP1D3XUMt53oSWgwrSoTxmSidy_9Go1dzrekWYZDLn2G4ND3RA5s55kRDWfE9GvzLW1idgY7NJHXkFgsYgam0w9L3Hp_pa2q7rk7xt9PZ7_SmAXHiWjUaE6nLhPjWJVBwd7DTW6cAZmyjwy866OMHYd9rUFmHHKEYDRyxGA9syu7xwnDGAIH0_s/w640-h426/Masciarelli-vineyards-at-Harvest.jpg" title="Masciarelli winery" width="640" /></a></span></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b>The Wine<o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">I’m not going to dig into the Masciarelli estate much today
as I have featured them previously as I shared <a href="https://bit.ly/3OHtfru" target="_blank">Montepulciano wines from around Abruzzo</a> .<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The <b>2022
Masciarelli Rosato Colline Teatine IGT</b> that I’m featuring today is made
from 85% Montepulciano grapes and up to 15% other red grapes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Masciarelli has been making this wine along with their Montepulciano
d’Abruzzo and Trebbiano d’Abruzzo since 1981 from the owner, Gianni Masciarelli’s,
original 12 acres at his home vineyard.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">The free run must is fermented in stainless steel to
preserve the freshness in this wine along with it’s acidity.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The grapes are sourced from 3 of
Masciarelli’s vineyard sites around the area of Chieti in the Bucchianico,
Martino sull Marrucina and Ripa Teatina vineyards mostly made up of calcareous
clay.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">The 2022 Masciarelli Rosato Colline Teatine IGT was a
beautiful salmon color in the glass.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Fresh on the nose with aromas of wild strawberries.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Simple and delicate on the palate, but
refreshing acidity with notes of slightly tart strawberries.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">If you’re looking for an introduction into Italian rosé
without dropping too much on a bottle, this is a satisfying and easy drinking
wine priced at $15 a bottle.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Plus, it
has a screw up for easy accessibility.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">After tasting this wine I could see it’s versatility with a
variety of dishes, but I chose to make a white pizza of shrimp scampi.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s been a long time since I’ve made a white
pizza.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As a child I grew up with my mom
making pizzas on Friday nights, usually your typical cheese, but as I grew I
got to appreciate a white pizza as well. Although, my two young boys looked at
me funny when I took this one out of the oven and then proceeded to tell them
it had shrimp on it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They’ll learn.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkkDef24Bq9iLTGEGM2xBZws1OOoz863VthMQqsX_hNMG8794Cd14JYia3SyJPE8edaJRqHeMby7wJGxhFGgtH4rD5gl2-Hq1V5PV6DYU47zTLf-3HZQzBeff9pYjPMI4dttvtqAB3d3JaZ10Vu_Slio0lOT_HXC6tlSa0rorU5IeLlX1oGqa7tTX5dgM/s1920/shrimp-scampi-pizza-pairing-with-montepulciano-ros%C3%A9.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Shrimp Scampi pairing with 2022 Masciarelli Rosato Colline Teatine IGT" border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkkDef24Bq9iLTGEGM2xBZws1OOoz863VthMQqsX_hNMG8794Cd14JYia3SyJPE8edaJRqHeMby7wJGxhFGgtH4rD5gl2-Hq1V5PV6DYU47zTLf-3HZQzBeff9pYjPMI4dttvtqAB3d3JaZ10Vu_Slio0lOT_HXC6tlSa0rorU5IeLlX1oGqa7tTX5dgM/w640-h480/shrimp-scampi-pizza-pairing-with-montepulciano-ros%C3%A9.jpg" title="shrimp pizza paired with Montepulciano rosé" width="640" /></a></span></div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">It was rather simple to put together.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I cooked the shrimp first in oil, garlic,
butter and salt making sure there was enough use as the sauce in prepping the
pizza.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I put the dough into the oven
first for about 4-5 minutes before putting the toppings on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
brushed the garlic butter sauce from cooking the shrimp on top of the pizza with
some parsley and topped it with shrimp I chopped up along with mozzarella
cheese.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I cooked it an additional 8-10
minutes and it came out perfect!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Plus,
the Masciarelli Rosato pairing couldn’t have balanced any better with the
flavors in the pizza.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It had a nicely
matched body of the wine in comparison with the shrimp scampi pizza and
complimentary flavors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

wines of southern Tuscany highlighting some of the differences of those from
the more northernly neighbors in Tuscany.
This week we’re exploring the area of Suvereto checking out the
Bulichella winery and their “super Tuscan” style wines.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b>The southern Tuscany region<o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Suvereto is said to be the “borghi piu belli di Italia”, one
of the most beautiful villages in Italy, based in the Livorno province of
Tuscany about 50 miles southwest out of Florence bordering the Tyrrhenian Sea.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This area is considered the Maremma, which
you may recall me talking about some weeks back.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s situated between the hills and the sea,
also known as the Etruscan coast, “costa degli Etruschi”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Suvereto is in the Val di Cornia which is full of forests
and a variety of trees, especially the cork trees from which it takes its name,
sughero translating to corks.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Records
show that back in 973 the area was known as Suberetum and in local dialect,
Sughereto.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s no wonder this area is
full of craftsmen including carpenters and cork workers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">The closest I have come to visit this area is the nearby
island of Elba right off the coast.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
area surrounding Suvereto is full of wonderful outdoor activities including
walking and biking trails as well as thermals baths.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Multiple festivals take place throughout the
year including the “Calici di Stelle”, the chalice of the stars, that takes
place in mid-August.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is also the
Sagra del Cinghiale, the wild boar festival, held the first week of
December.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b>The winery – Bulichella<o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">I’ve mostly always written about the decades or centuries of
traditions within wineries that families have passed down from generation to
generation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Today, the story behind
Bulichella is different.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Owner Hideyuki Miyakawa
first ventured to Italy in 1960 from Japan during the Olympics with some
friends.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To earn more money during his
travels he became a correspondent covering the car show in Turin, where he
happened to meet his future wife, Maria Luisa Bassana, that he married 2 years
later in 1962.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

figures in the car design industry where he later became partner in 1968 to the
company Italystyling that is now known as ItalDesign.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He also became a large influence in exporting
the Italian car design to his home country of Japan, which earned him in 2007
the award and honor of Grand Officer Order of Merit of Italian Republic by the
President at the time, Giorgio Napolitano.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-3qz6m7XQkeGY4maghmaRJ-vrXqDbueQT4xHCyQFw6twhMKXiaWbJfSZvYhMfpOh1dakzPS6UjsflrKDoOX8XJFX3q5hAww70UFG_ap2wZeNrMLVgaQaObTGkzUx84btPNQnQRDRubVWopu5lndvv-UPpj7CSv30e3_MBy2BHDyUNRmmqSsUBk_kvYn4/s1024/hideyuki-miyakawa-bulichella-winery.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Hideyuki Miyakawa Bulichella owner" border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="683" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-3qz6m7XQkeGY4maghmaRJ-vrXqDbueQT4xHCyQFw6twhMKXiaWbJfSZvYhMfpOh1dakzPS6UjsflrKDoOX8XJFX3q5hAww70UFG_ap2wZeNrMLVgaQaObTGkzUx84btPNQnQRDRubVWopu5lndvv-UPpj7CSv30e3_MBy2BHDyUNRmmqSsUBk_kvYn4/w266-h400/hideyuki-miyakawa-bulichella-winery.jpg" title="Hideyuki Miyakawa" width="266" /></a></span></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black; font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;">The clay mineral rich soils of the surrounding land along
with the maritime climate create ideal conditions for making quality
wine. The vineyards are well ventilated from the breeze off the sea.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Maremma territory is known for their
“super Tuscan” style wines, which are Bordeaux based wines primarily made of
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot that show great balance and
elegance. They don’t conform to Tuscany’s regulations and the rules
of its northernly neighbors so winemakers have branched out experimenting with
how they would like to produce wines without the restrictions. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black; font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmELto_k5EPu66KNiSqlsuN0niCdGLATjdf5cCxlzoT2Hw2J63o3KV_7KeYkW6OM181psH2a8UBrlLEX79wkt4PkkhYye4Z0ngWC-YArW5xBOfKzc5kLPfzf1MSN3PsioJ9I935fx2jBNJqYtqJEdClpRBCJ8R9z03uySVwcuHeNECrrV6MF4FnBFQXMw/s1200/soils-of-montepeloso.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="soils in Montepeloso" border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="1200" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmELto_k5EPu66KNiSqlsuN0niCdGLATjdf5cCxlzoT2Hw2J63o3KV_7KeYkW6OM181psH2a8UBrlLEX79wkt4PkkhYye4Z0ngWC-YArW5xBOfKzc5kLPfzf1MSN3PsioJ9I935fx2jBNJqYtqJEdClpRBCJ8R9z03uySVwcuHeNECrrV6MF4FnBFQXMw/w640-h426/soils-of-montepeloso.jpg" title="soil of Montepeloso" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Soils of Montepeloso</td></tr></tbody></table></span><span style="color: black; font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;">Some of Italy’s top wines hail from the
Maremma. Point proven that it isn’t always about the designation
that one label bears, but rather the quality within the
bottle. Personally I’ve always been hesitant when I see wines
marketed in the US as “super tuscans” as I feel many have used this as a
marketing technique, but you decide. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

these wines fall under the Suvereto DOCG that was established in 2011 in which
Hideyuki played a large role in getting established when he was the prior
President of the Val di Cornia DOC Wine Consortium.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This area had previously fallen under the Val
di Cornia DOC.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You may find wines
produced there as single varietals of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese
or blended with at least 85% minimum of one of the grapes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="color: black; font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;">Bulichella was one of the first organic estates in Tuscany
and is ICEA Organic certified throughout their entire production chain
including their photovoltaic system.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Today their estate is comprised of about 103 acres of which 35 acres are
vineyards and 25 are olive groves. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="color: black; font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: black; font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyke_AK0I-tZRMjNldk3wS_KRhqcCoZ0FoZ82A_fS6DTZiGuCaBQ8xcX2dBn7RQTRPZ2C98X8Tp8Ya2A62fYznrTtrOUQNa0YGSnjy2UH6eJkZNPdA8pKdHyPaiS9NUQ4mIOVyGBygdSobXywI1z5V-OGljinZxI-fEGNN8PVcEXfT7ysnbYLqsPrc4fM/s4000/Bulichella-winery-Suvereto.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bulichella winery in Suvereto Maremma" border="0" data-original-height="2264" data-original-width="4000" height="362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyke_AK0I-tZRMjNldk3wS_KRhqcCoZ0FoZ82A_fS6DTZiGuCaBQ8xcX2dBn7RQTRPZ2C98X8Tp8Ya2A62fYznrTtrOUQNa0YGSnjy2UH6eJkZNPdA8pKdHyPaiS9NUQ4mIOVyGBygdSobXywI1z5V-OGljinZxI-fEGNN8PVcEXfT7ysnbYLqsPrc4fM/w640-h362/Bulichella-winery-Suvereto.JPG" title="Bulichella winery" width="640" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b>The Wines<o:p></o:p></b></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">I sampled 4 wines from the Bulichella winery mostly made of
blends with one based 100% on the Syrah grape.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I’m not a huge fan of oak usage, primarily newer oak, but what stood out
to me about these wines was their elegance.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>My favorite of the bunch was the Montecristo, but I tend to prefer
Merlot and with a blend dominated by Merlot that took my preferable spot.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRPqoz2YK3lpCTOhapUmDO9j5soaMxRjtSwknFcOp5V6TgRNKKbv5W2kBna70swKx1s15IOu-tqkBkHe3igUKY77eBHDd0FSlw7Z7V9zR-Wn2uJMuo9jNDiPx4wk1KVT-41NA1xIU98nW8ofvLT5s7Ul6VO4l6DURTjBpEe7T8o1ms2pYTMmCvWwDYukw/s1920/wines-of-Bulichella-Suvereto.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bulichella wines of Suvereto" border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRPqoz2YK3lpCTOhapUmDO9j5soaMxRjtSwknFcOp5V6TgRNKKbv5W2kBna70swKx1s15IOu-tqkBkHe3igUKY77eBHDd0FSlw7Z7V9zR-Wn2uJMuo9jNDiPx4wk1KVT-41NA1xIU98nW8ofvLT5s7Ul6VO4l6DURTjBpEe7T8o1ms2pYTMmCvWwDYukw/w640-h480/wines-of-Bulichella-Suvereto.jpg" title="Wines of Bulichella" width="640" /></a></span></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><b></b>The<b> 2020 Bulichella Rubino Costa Toscana Rosso IGT</b>

I was intrigued to discover that Suvereto has a wild boar festival. Although I didn't prepare wild boar to taste with these wines I used the brisket that we bought from our local farm and cooked it in the slow cooker for about 7-8 hours for a quick, but delicious meal. I browned the brisket first on both sides for 2-3 minutes for added flavor and set it on low with some water and wine (of course) along with garlic, onions and varied seasonings to include bay leaves, salt and pepper. Once the brisket was done I pulled it out and added some corn starch to the remaining juice to thicken the sauce. I added the brisket back in once the sauce thickened and shredded the brisket upon removing much of the fat. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-spacerun: yes;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-spacerun: yes;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuwI4zgWq5M_piNFKpy1emCO_mqjzyx_ex-hjHviBX5SozF0HAtv2SMZIATNQAWlSGdE64n84pohL_aPAzZnSjdl5x8PoXdNA7X7uX0B5_i-Y6uyMgYcCmu7cOKEkwpxPJvfJwPG0DjgRX1htTRH7Wqu8ukJOoBswd3rNzc0gMomDAx0sRt_E1tazJHMc/s2560/slow-cooker-brisket-paired-with-maremma-wines.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="slow cooker brisket paired with Maremma wines" border="0" data-original-height="2560" data-original-width="1920" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuwI4zgWq5M_piNFKpy1emCO_mqjzyx_ex-hjHviBX5SozF0HAtv2SMZIATNQAWlSGdE64n84pohL_aPAzZnSjdl5x8PoXdNA7X7uX0B5_i-Y6uyMgYcCmu7cOKEkwpxPJvfJwPG0DjgRX1htTRH7Wqu8ukJOoBswd3rNzc0gMomDAx0sRt_E1tazJHMc/w480-h640/slow-cooker-brisket-paired-with-maremma-wines.jpg" title="Slow cooked brisket" width="480" /></a></span></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-spacerun: yes;">I have to say all these wines paired just lovely with this dish.

</span>This month, I’m highlighting the Maremma wine region, often overshadowed
by its neighboring wine regions to the north.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Today I am focusing on the area of Scansano, one of the known
places for wine production in the Maremma.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Italy is comprised of a number of cooperatives from north to south that are producing quality wines including today’s feature on
Cantina Vignaioli Scansano.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">The winery – Cantina Vignaioli Scansano<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Cantina Vignaioli is located near the historic center of
Scansano. Although the coop began from a few farmers banding together to form the winery, the Etruscans had first realized the potential of this area when they began producing wines there in the 3rd century BC followed by the Romans. Cantina Cooperativa Vignaioli del Morellino di Scansano, the officilal name, started in 1972. Some years later in 1978, this area was granted the designation Morellino di Scansano DOC. The winery continued to invest in their quality production and as popularity grew for the wines of Maremma a new bottling plant was built to increase their production along with providing an aging cellar. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUsLWnNgGX_tyV0I3uldjT6Wzq_-WLn7qJ9fjofCEiAZuW1WQJBTfEkeF6MmZeAZIqGfjwQ8zfPkyvoB7suUsRF-2uYoom2N04M7DV7c_VVKaYwSGFgf8yWKngXlQ8BQ2_nRtHNM1g2t_ASVUeuP43xGHbzeb6OizrOdlSuzGT7fmZAOA8Q9abBy7ZusE/s2953/Cantina-Vignaioli-Morellino-di-Scansano.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1108" data-original-width="2953" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUsLWnNgGX_tyV0I3uldjT6Wzq_-WLn7qJ9fjofCEiAZuW1WQJBTfEkeF6MmZeAZIqGfjwQ8zfPkyvoB7suUsRF-2uYoom2N04M7DV7c_VVKaYwSGFgf8yWKngXlQ8BQ2_nRtHNM1g2t_ASVUeuP43xGHbzeb6OizrOdlSuzGT7fmZAOA8Q9abBy7ZusE/w640-h240/Cantina-Vignaioli-Morellino-di-Scansano.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">In 2010 the winery focused on sustainability and limiting their environmental impact and carbon footprint.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">My preferred wine of the 3 I tasted from Cantina Vignaioli Scansano was the <b>2020 Cantina Vignaioli Roggiano Morellino di Scansano DOCG</b>. Again, it's all about personal preference here, but I enjoyed them all in their own right. This wine is made of 95% Sangiovese and 5% Alicante and comes from their line that they best feel represents their territory. The grapes are harvested and preserved with carbonic snow and spend 12 hours in hot macerations. In controlled temperatures the wine is fermented and spends 7 days on the skins with 4 months aging on the lees in stainless steel and 3 more months in the bottle. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">The wine was ruby colored with a touch of garnet. A rustic, dusty nose of red cherries and blackberries. Dry and medium-bodied with a pure, clean expression of Sangiovese. Cherry notes with elegant tannin. A wine where all the elements seemed to be in harmony. ABV 14%. SRP $24</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">The other wine, the 2021 Cantina Vignaioli Sangiovese "Vin del Fattore" Maremma Toscana DOC, was also based on 95% Sangiovese with 5% of Cieligiolo. I was intrigued by the term "governo all'uso toscano" found on the label , which as you read earlier was a ancient technique used during vinification where in this wine the Sangiovese grapes withered in refrigeration until they lost 15% of their weight. The Ciliegioli grapes withered for 4 weeks. After fermentation the grapes are blended and spend 3 months in stainless steel tanks on the lees. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Ruby colored with slight purple hues. Juicy, ripe aromas of ripe blackberries and cherries with baking spices. Dry and medium-bodied with moderate tannin. Richer in dark berries on the palette.

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Food and wine pairings from the Maremma </span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-spacerun: yes;">In researching the food of Maremma I stumbled across a hot bread based soup that originated from the Maremma. With winter upon us in the northeast I always enjoy making a soup once a week if I can. Acquacotta translates to "cooked water". This was tradionally a peasant food made from the poor farmers and shepherds that were trying to find ways to utilize their stale bread during their travels. The main ingredients in this dish historically were water, bread, olive oil, tomatoes, onions or whatever leftovers they had to throw in. Today folks have added a number of additional ingredients, myself included, to be able to make it a more robust soup to give it more greens. You will see additional ingredients today to include porcini mushrooms, beans, leafy greens, cheeses, eggs, etc. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-spacerun: yes;">It was a relatively easy soup to prepare and gives you a good daily dose of your vegetables. Plus, I always find soups so filling so it's great way to eat healthy and stay on track in the new year. I first started sauteing my onions and garlic in some extra virgin olive oil for about 3-5 minutes. I then chopped up some carrots and celery to add to the mix cooking further for an additional 5 minutes. I used Italian peeled tomatoes and cut them up adding salt, pepper and basil to the pot. I brought these ingredients to a boil and then down to a simmer adding in the escarole and cannellini beans. I saw many recipes with poached eggs on top, which I think would be a delicious to this dish. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6_Y9FJMbEdiP_REHjXFxoFZPHp5WgUL6yIQHZBXQURrEv8f6MhPvbiku8t6IwaRtn7Nw290uamQkKBR9lIyAvXFTmjDSVE7iQMTB0PPIku5z0jEaHRUN-TU8rZrl91hsclT9xsivuOzC36z8ILWW_YvzY1j2h1RH1RZcCIdThiAXw6ZTo-gQGFMJj25U/s2560/wine-pairing-with-acquacotta-from-the-Maremma.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><img alt="wine pairing with acquacotta from the Maremma" border="0" data-original-height="2560" data-original-width="1920" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6_Y9FJMbEdiP_REHjXFxoFZPHp5WgUL6yIQHZBXQURrEv8f6MhPvbiku8t6IwaRtn7Nw290uamQkKBR9lIyAvXFTmjDSVE7iQMTB0PPIku5z0jEaHRUN-TU8rZrl91hsclT9xsivuOzC36z8ILWW_YvzY1j2h1RH1RZcCIdThiAXw6ZTo-gQGFMJj25U/w480-h640/wine-pairing-with-acquacotta-from-the-Maremma.jpg" title="Acquacotta" width="480" /></span></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; mso-spacerun: yes;">I enjoyed acquacotta with the Cantina Vignaioli Scansano sparkling Vermentino. Originally I was going to choose their red wines, but decided to save those for some bacon wrapped filets I had planned for later in the week. Since the soup was relatively light with the vegetables and beans I would say the two went together just fine. Although, the bites of pecorino I had while sipping on the Vermentino while cooking complemented each other well. Sometimes you find some delightful treats when you least expect it. </span></p><div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><!--Begin MailChimp Signup Form--></span><div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><label>Don't miss an Italian wine blog ~ Subscribe</label><span> </span><input class="email" id="mce-EMAIL" name="EMAIL" placeholder="" required="" type="email" value="" /></span></div><div><span class="EOP SCXW190298753 BCX2" data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}" style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; line-height: 19.425px;"> </span></div><div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;">*These wines were provided as samples, but opinions are my own.

readers and followers along with the companies I had the pleasure to partner
with through the year. It was a celebratory year
for me as I celebrated my 10<sup>th</sup> anniversary since I began Vino Travels. It was a pleasure to write about all 20 of Italy’s
wine regions highlighting some of the lesser known wine regions, grapes and
producers. In the world of Italian wine
there is always so much to explore and I still have a long road to go.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

but focus more on quality content.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
look forward to highlighting more Italian food and wine pairings monthly along with occasional interviews and guests on my blog.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I’ve tossed with the idea of redesigning my website, but I’d also like

Lombardy wine region and share a wine dinner I
attended a couple months back in Boston sponsored by the Oltrepo Pavese
Consorzio and wine friend Susannah of Vigneto Communications. You may remember me highlighting some wines
from the Oltrepo in Lombardy awhile back, which I will also rehighlight at the
bottom of this article. It was a
splendid evening in the North End of Boston, the Italian section of Boston, at
Forcella with great food and wine pairings, great conversation and a reminder
of interesting and diverse this region really is.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img alt="food and wine tasting with Oltrepo Pavese wines at Forcella Boston" border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigzpIT8rGl3x0MiO1Ors_BMtgxnSaPBJC7HyxXU15IDDbfrxz078-yXi2IWqxAEyzaZMiidecBOclJgkXVHVne_iFlPQv8Bwy6q3qVtHYFeZgKrCYu3gKqmzeTO6ehfoNpZimsiTe5qBcu5m3scbC2dekE0xvrYXEjkDNb9d6W9uwxUoLibYeBK8qk4zU/w640-h480/food-and-wine-tasting-of-Oltrepo-Pavese%20wines.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="wine writers with the Consorzio Oltrepo Pavese" width="640" /></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Susannah (Vigneto Communicatiaons), myself, Carlo (Consorzio), David (Cooking Chat) and Alison (Artisan Wine Group)<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigzpIT8rGl3x0MiO1Ors_BMtgxnSaPBJC7HyxXU15IDDbfrxz078-yXi2IWqxAEyzaZMiidecBOclJgkXVHVne_iFlPQv8Bwy6q3qVtHYFeZgKrCYu3gKqmzeTO6ehfoNpZimsiTe5qBcu5m3scbC2dekE0xvrYXEjkDNb9d6W9uwxUoLibYeBK8qk4zU/s1920/food-and-wine-tasting-of-Oltrepo-Pavese%20wines.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span></span></a></span></div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">The Oltrepo Pavese, pronounced ol-tray-po pah-vay-say, sits
in the southern part of the Lombardy about 25 miles outside of Milan. It’s
uniquely shaped within Lombardy looking like a cluster of grapes. The vineyards cover 32,000 acres across 7 denominations
with the flagship DOCG, and only DOCG, being the Oltrepo Pavese Metodo Classico
Pinot Nero DOCG. The Oltrepo receives a Mediterranean climate
from the nearby influence of the Ligurian Sea and has more of a continental
climate with the Po Valley. Due to these
factors, and others, there is a large diversity in the styles of wines produced
in the Oltrepo.</span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Whether you have heard of the Oltrepo or not you may be
surprised to learn that this wine area actually accounts for 65% of the wine
production within Lombardy. So much of
the Oltrepo has changed over the years.
In 1884 the Oltrepo had 224 native vines with 59 grapes. Today this area has 10 native vines with a
much more limited amount of grapes. It’s
primary grapes grown and what it is known for are Barbara, Riseling, Croatina
and especially Pinot Nero. The Oltrepo
Pavese is actually 3<sup>rd</sup> in the world, besides Champagne and Burgundy
France, for the production of their Pinot Noir.
Other grapes also produced within the Oltrepo Pavese include Uva Rara,
Pinot Bianco, Cortese Bianco, Vespolina, Moscato, Pinot Grigio, Malvasia and
Mueller Thurgau.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">There are 4 valleys in the Oltrepo from west to east
including Valle Straffora, Valle Coppa, Valle Scuropasso and Valle Versa. Pinot Nero is frequently grown in the Valle
Scuropasso. Barbera you will find mostly
within Valle Straffora and Valle Coppa.
Riesling does well in the calcareous soils of Valle Coppa. Croatina is found in the central valleys
eastward. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; line-height: 107%;"><span>We opened
the evening with the lovely <b>Ca’ di Frara T4 Brut Nature</b>. The <b>2022 Bruno Verdi Pinot Grigio</b> was
surprising as I never would’ve pinned that wine if tasted blind, although I’m
far from an expert. The texture and
fruit profile in the wine reminded me of a Riesling.</span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrihSK0cK4oprKKqjGnGs3Kx_sQ68rDS43OKqCNDbITgW1I4JQhM4f7Hj1UK43moPinvzp9hp0YTCkrrtbFdPqmTh-Vhaq_ZtEMQzqdCgBmclO7zgbnMg1htpVH8hE71dKl1fdPd9BDdI4K3-vWkySq4L63vT8tcqj7RzO_J5_0AWC0NJE7D_l4o-b9_I/s1920/Ca-di-Frara-T4-Brut-Nature.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ca' di Frara T4 Brut Nature" border="0" data-original-height="1920" data-original-width="1440" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrihSK0cK4oprKKqjGnGs3Kx_sQ68rDS43OKqCNDbITgW1I4JQhM4f7Hj1UK43moPinvzp9hp0YTCkrrtbFdPqmTh-Vhaq_ZtEMQzqdCgBmclO7zgbnMg1htpVH8hE71dKl1fdPd9BDdI4K3-vWkySq4L63vT8tcqj7RzO_J5_0AWC0NJE7D_l4o-b9_I/w300-h400/Ca-di-Frara-T4-Brut-Nature.jpg" title="Ca' di Frara Brut" width="300" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfeLCr_BTecwRtDK9hJ-8XMOOZ4FNScOYgIVCCXkxvm7cCvkcLLhk5FlbJmB22Zw0HlEhuqF1VNMx9RURMElNhhE77EVNlEDfBXuqyVBiNFCzweMLcmgdKUufTwakZVv55Us-jac95dCUnjgT6lvRJRncuu8vDSuo_ZJ2JBUR5os-YFN2eVaHOQ0m4TyY/s1920/2022-Bruno-Verdi-Pinot-Grigio.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="2022 Bruno Verdi Pinot Grigio" border="0" data-original-height="1920" data-original-width="1440" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfeLCr_BTecwRtDK9hJ-8XMOOZ4FNScOYgIVCCXkxvm7cCvkcLLhk5FlbJmB22Zw0HlEhuqF1VNMx9RURMElNhhE77EVNlEDfBXuqyVBiNFCzweMLcmgdKUufTwakZVv55Us-jac95dCUnjgT6lvRJRncuu8vDSuo_ZJ2JBUR5os-YFN2eVaHOQ0m4TyY/w300-h400/2022-Bruno-Verdi-Pinot-Grigio.jpg" title="Pinot Grigio wine from Bruno Verdi" width="300" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;">Although I didn’t take specific notes on these wines during

on a Disney cruise of the western Caribbean, I'm ready to share a recent
tasting I had a couple months back including sparkling wines from Borgo
Maragliano.</span></span></span></span> <span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">This winery is located in
the sparkling wine area of Piedmont in northwestern Italy known as the Alta Langa. They are based in Loazzolo, close to Asti.</span></span></span></span> <span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">We tasted through 6 sparkling wines</span></span></span></span> <span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">mostly based on Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and
one from the Riesling grape.</span></span></span></span> <span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">Let's
explore!</span></span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">The winery – Borgo Maragliano</span></span><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">The husband and wife owners, Carlo and Silvia Galliano, run Borgo
Maragliano along with 2 of their 3 sons. </span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"> Carlo is also the winemaker and his wife handles the hospitality portion
of their business.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">They own about 108
acres in the Alta Langa, which is close to the seaside and therefore has the
Ligurian Sea influence and winds over their vineyards.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">The winery is situated at about 1,475 feet on
steep Langhe hills with the vineyards at about 2,000 feet above sea level.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">Their focus is on 4 grapes in particular,
Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and Moscato.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">The Moscato grape Carlo shared is the king grape of this particular area
in the Alta Langa.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNQDLM0p5DzdeF_avb0xU-nJU_TrCKTwl-mdn3pVSVzNdiwSWROddQY8TJppBcGwUeVyxTPDZRPj8pcJxFjl2uLRhlq39F2AsWL8Mp0L8CDXN7U0Q4SfoZoIchyBz5WEwoVbyiZupK3YePcHGPJSFnKTlotJtqUmieN37K3GOfwLT5OHplrgBSZo-M4LI/s5605/Galliano-family-of-Borgo-Maragliano.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Galliano family of Borgo Maragliano" border="0" data-original-height="3737" data-original-width="5605" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNQDLM0p5DzdeF_avb0xU-nJU_TrCKTwl-mdn3pVSVzNdiwSWROddQY8TJppBcGwUeVyxTPDZRPj8pcJxFjl2uLRhlq39F2AsWL8Mp0L8CDXN7U0Q4SfoZoIchyBz5WEwoVbyiZupK3YePcHGPJSFnKTlotJtqUmieN37K3GOfwLT5OHplrgBSZo-M4LI/w640-h426/Galliano-family-of-Borgo-Maragliano.jpg" title="Galliano family" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Galliano family<br /></td></tr></tbody></table></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">The Alta Langa is an area of southern Piedmont known for
producing sparkling wines made in the traditional method style, known as the
traditional method, with the second fermentation taking place in the
bottle.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">This is the way in which Borgo
Maragliano produces their wines.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">Canelli,
a municipality in the Asti province of Piedmont, was the first in Italy to use this popular
methodology and experiment with it.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">Specifically
the producers, Carlo Gancia and Conterno, were influential in the beginnings of
using the classic style method.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">Carlo explained how they use selected yeasts from France and
</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">use organic practices in their
vineyards.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">Their soil is meager and poor
that gives great acidity to their wines allowing them to stay fresh and be
ageworthy.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">He discussed what he calls
the “pedoclima” as a major factor in the influences of their wines.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">This pedoclima is a combination of their altitude,
soils and climate.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">They have large
diurnal temperature swings of 23-24 degrees.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgp1v_Xd_2ui6HhYOrn2G20Fyt1xy7KoU7uR_X_5JIYKL4OtgaHhtXhH66jyqBZuM_MUEqQ0DrtOh06YGkrFfilGEKAQ7M-RITQAGxuxEmW742rqAxyboc_sxD7X0H9vaDCgZUazPMp8pCTQ3N3BNwEci1fo6l1-yyrl6mVyz6yxY4c-TXDiZON8A-rLsI/s1755/Borgo-Maragliano-vineyards-Alta-Langa.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Borgo Maragliano vineyards in Alta Langa" border="0" data-original-height="1240" data-original-width="1755" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgp1v_Xd_2ui6HhYOrn2G20Fyt1xy7KoU7uR_X_5JIYKL4OtgaHhtXhH66jyqBZuM_MUEqQ0DrtOh06YGkrFfilGEKAQ7M-RITQAGxuxEmW742rqAxyboc_sxD7X0H9vaDCgZUazPMp8pCTQ3N3BNwEci1fo6l1-yyrl6mVyz6yxY4c-TXDiZON8A-rLsI/w640-h452/Borgo-Maragliano-vineyards-Alta-Langa.jpg" title="Vineyards of Borgo Maragliano" width="640" /></a></span></span></div><o:p></o:p><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: inherit;">The wines</span></span><o:p></o:p></b></p>

This was Diego’s desire to purchase land from where he was born and worked with his grandfather. The Tregnano estate is located northeast of Verona, in the eastern area of Valpolicella. The vineyards sit on top of the hills that divide both the Ilasi and Mezzane Valleys that also border the Monti Lessini national park. At the top of the hills they built a drying facility that sits at about 1,650 feet that provides great ventilation for the grapes to dry. Out of the 345 acres that the Cottini family owns, about 123 acres are located there in Valpolicella.</span></span><span class="EOP SCXW232197406 BCX2" data-ccp-props="{"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":257}" style="line-height: 19.275px;"> </span></span></p><p class="Paragraph SCXW232197406 BCX2" style="background-color: transparent; color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><span class="EOP SCXW232197406 BCX2" data-ccp-props="{"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":257}" style="line-height: 19.275px;"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><span class="EOP SCXW232197406 BCX2" data-ccp-props="{"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":257}" style="line-height: 19.275px;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy411vCZMufe2_UYl8QD7ktX_M5413NqLGh6Rtw9m0HFtvbXZRRvqxWVzSM1nND4Pfh4EC5MehyMOk9zYdpiEMxWNzcAlNw_cQb4HzcTTF3LwwwNnRQ5deoW7FZCjWVps-TeETcyhyYJHdWAFW_3H9QZZXngrgBXUtVD82Xixp-QyDbhQ1eIVUkpsNW8M/s7360/Vigneti-Tregnago-of-Valpolicella-Monte-Zovo.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Tregnago estate of Monte Zovo" border="0" data-original-height="4912" data-original-width="7360" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy411vCZMufe2_UYl8QD7ktX_M5413NqLGh6Rtw9m0HFtvbXZRRvqxWVzSM1nND4Pfh4EC5MehyMOk9zYdpiEMxWNzcAlNw_cQb4HzcTTF3LwwwNnRQ5deoW7FZCjWVps-TeETcyhyYJHdWAFW_3H9QZZXngrgBXUtVD82Xixp-QyDbhQ1eIVUkpsNW8M/w640-h428/Vigneti-Tregnago-of-Valpolicella-Monte-Zovo.jpg" title="Tregnago vineyard" width="640" /></a></span></span></div><p></p></div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW232197406 BCX2" style="direction: ltr;"><p class="Paragraph SCXW232197406 BCX2" style="background-color: transparent; color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><span class="TextRun SCXW232197406 BCX2" data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: bold; line-height: 19.275px;"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW232197406 BCX2">The Wines of Monte Zovo</span></span><span class="EOP SCXW232197406 BCX2" data-ccp-props="{"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":257}" style="line-height: 19.275px;"> </span></span></p></div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW232197406 BCX2" style="direction: ltr;"><p class="Paragraph SCXW232197406 BCX2" style="background-color: transparent; color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><span class="TextRun SCXW232197406 BCX2" data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 19.275px;"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW232197406 BCX2">If you are familiar with the red wines of the Valpolicella most of them are based on a number of native grapes including Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Molinara.

I was pleasantly surprised by this wine, especially at its price point at $18, as it gives a nice introduction to the grapes of this region at a reasonable price point. The grapes are grown in the northern area of Verona on morainic soil. The grapes are left on the vines an additional 2-4 weeks to overripen going through a drying process while on the vine. The wine is then picked and fermented for 25-30 days and aged for 12 months in a combination of barrique and tonneaux. Ruby and rather transparent in the glass. Violet and blackberries filled the aromas. A medium-bodied, but on the lighter side with juicy fruits of dried cherries and blackberries that rounded out the palate with a hint of black tea. Rather soft, but fruit filled.</span></span><span class="EOP SCXW232197406 BCX2" data-ccp-props="{"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":257}" style="line-height: 19.275px;"> </span><span class="EOP SCXW232197406 BCX2" data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}" style="line-height: 19.425px;"><br /></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

What makes a difference is how the vineyard is exposed and how internal the vineyard is. What I mean is that some areas of these two DOCs which are more exposed to the flatlands of Friuli will gain more heat in the summer and might be more suitable for red wines or white varietals that need more sun and heat to mature. Areas more internal or northern are nowadays more suitable for planting white aromatic varietals. We chose to plant our varietals after close consideration to the aforementioned.</span></span><span class="EOP SCXW25864161 BCX0" data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":0,"335551620":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent;
