The Pinot Noir grape variety is considered among the most noble red grape varieties in the world and also the most difficult to interpret. The origin of this vine is believed to be attributed to the French region of Burgundy. The grape harvest is manual, as it was once done. After a delicate destemming and crushing, fermentation follows with maceration on the skins in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. To extract color and aroma from the skins, several pumping overs are carried out and finally the maturation takes place in large wooden barrels. In the glass the color is a pale ruby red. The nose is intense and seductive with notes of raspberry, cherry, blackberry, violet and various spices. On the palate it is warm and enveloping, with lively notes of undergrowth. Thanks to its harmony, bringing this Pinot Noir to the table with red meat dishes, medium and long-aged cheeses and stewed fish will be a guaranteed success.

For more than a century this vine, originally from France and precisely from the Loire Valley area, has been grown on the hills of Alto Adige. The grape harvest takes place by hand, as in the past, starting from the beginning of September. After a gentle destemming, the grapes undergo a short cold maceration in a stainless steel press. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. At the end of alcoholic fermentation, the wine is kept in contact with the lees, in stainless steel containers for about 6 months. The Sauvignon has a yellow color with light green reflections. On the nose the scent is fresh, with extravagant hints of nettle, pepper, tomato leaves and anise. On the palate the flavor is intense and persistent with a good aroma and a savory and gritty acidity. A versatile goblet that goes perfectly with all courses at the table and after the first sip it will take you back to the unspoiled nature on the slopes of Monte Corno.

A long winter postponed the awakening of the vine to early April. A drop in temperatures after budding also delayed flowering. Subsequently, the weather remained capricious with a hot June and a humid July which laid the ideal foundations for the start of the maturation. August showed its best side with sunny weeks and exceptionally low night temperatures. Despite some brief downpours at the end of September/beginning of October, the harvest, which began with a delay of approx. ten days than usual and characterized by clearly lower than average volumes, it was marked by numerous warm days and increasingly colder nights.

The grapes are harvested by hand around mid-September and subjected to traditional vinification with brief contact on the skins to increase the extraction of the varietal aromas characteristic of the grape. Subsequently the must is subjected to fermentation at low temperature

Brand: Musivum

The production area chosen for the Chardonnay Musivum is located in Alto Adige and includes various locations: mainly in the municipality of Salorno, Magrè and Egna. The characteristics of the area, inclined to maintain high acid content, are ideal for the cultivation of Chardonnay which manages to reach high sugar levels. Another peculiarity of this area, ideal for growing grapes, is the microclimate characterized by good wind – which avoids dangerous stagnation of humidity and guarantees rapid drying of the grapes after the rains – and by an insolation throughout the day. Production begins with a slightly delayed manual harvest to enhance the aromatic richness of this variety. In the Cellar, the individual containers are distinguished on the basis of the characteristics of the grapes, so as to diversify the vinification process. All the grapes are cooled in the cell at 2-3°C. The following days those with a yellow/golden color are removed from the stalks and left to rest in the press for 4/5 hours in contact with the skins (cryomaceration) to increase the extraction of the aromatic precursors of this variety. The yellow/green colored grapes are instead de-stemmed and immediately subjected to soft pressing. From both portions a free-run must is obtained which is followed by natural decanting. The start of fermentation takes place in special stainless steel tanks, specially designed for the " Musivum " project, with selected yeasts and with a progressive and controlled increase in temperature from 14° to 18°C. Once fermentation has started, 65% of the volume continues its journey in the new barrique cellar: 50% in second passage oak barrels, where it remains for the refinement phase and the other 15% is aged in new French oak barriques at medium roast. The remaining 35% completes the fermentation in steel. During the refinement the 3 portions are kept separate, with frequent movements of the fine lees, up to 2 months before bottling, when they are brought together to amalgamate the different components, i.e. those fermented and aged in the various woods with the one fermented and aged in steel .
