Artisan Italy Silver

Artisan Italy Silver

From Sangiovese to Trebbiano and the wide viticultural variations that lie in between, navigating the wine shop shelves to find an Italian wine that will complement a Friday night lasagna can be a fun-filled experience. While Italy has successfully planted the vast majority of the dominant international grape varietals, the country's domestic vines are what offer the true flavor characteristics that have made Italian wines world reknown for ages. With literally hundreds of wines produced in Italy annually, it is no wonder that selecting Italian wines can be a bit intimidating. Therefor pick from the Artisan collection some wines and make it a new experience. You will enjoy it.

Il Poggione
Brunello Di Montalcino Reserva Sangiovese Grosso
WA95
The Riserva is made in limited quantities, only in the best vintage years, from Sangiovese grapes harvested by hand in the winery's oldest vineyard, I Paganelli. This vineyard is now 36 years old and especially suited to the production of top quality grapes, thanks to the natural features of the soil and the favourable microclimate. The Riserva is aged for 36 months in French Allier oak barrels, and continues to mature for another 12 months in the bottles before it is placed on the market, five years after the harvest. This wine's huge impact begins with the bright ruby red color; it is stylish on the nose with fruity, floral notes enfolded in sweet spice. The flavor is lingering and balanced with a long, seductive finish. A very classy wine which will improve with time.

2001 $84.50

La Poja was first created by Giovanni Allegrini and originated from his passionate belief in the land on which he lived.

Terra di Lavoro IGT Roccamonina -NA-
The 2004 displays a purple opaque color and lovely ripe black cherry fruit, oak, and smoky aromas on the nose. On the palate it is elegant, with highly concentrated fruit, a lush modern feel, beautiful balance and big tannins.

Made from 80% Aglianico and 20% Piedirosso grapes grown in volcanic soils at 1,300 feet above sea level. After fermentation, the wine was aged in new Allier and Nevers barriques for 12 months.

Look closely and ind that this part of the vine is reddish in color. In this, their native environment, Piedirosso and Aglianico show their full, breath-taking potential.
