Vermutet “Iaia Manola” is a white vermouth with which we want to pay tribute to our maternal grandmother, Manola.

Using our white “Shhh…” as a wine base, we have created this very special and unique vermouth which we then macerate for 60 days with herbs and spices from the Aitana, Serrella and Xortà mountain ranges.

Golden yellow in colour, with herbal and floral notes followed by a very subtle mineral and honey base. With a long aftertaste and a bitter touch. We sweeten it with Stevia to reduce the use of sugar/caramel and make it less cloying and healthier.

Vinification:
The 4 varieties from smallholding plots were harvested by hand and subsequently fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Once the alcoholic fermentation was carried out, they were mixed in French oak barrels to undergo malolactic fermentation and aging for 12 months.

Once we had the wine ready (Memòries) we transferred 250 liters to steel tanks, mixing it with aromatic herbs from the Aitana, Serrella and Mariola mountains, spices and sweetener, with gentle stirring for 45 days until later.
bottling.

Pairing:
It works both as an aperitif, with olives and citrus peel, and as a “dessert vermouth”.

Alcohol content: 15%
Harvest year: 2019
Production: 271 bottles

Visual Phase: bright ruby garnet color, medium/high layer.

Olfactory Phase: Red and black fruits, citrus peel, fennel, cinnamon, sage, hints of caramel and toffee.

Taste Phase: Very sweet, but without cloying, reminiscent of a good artisan vermouth and different because its base comes from our red wine “Memories”, thus mixing the typical notes of the grapes with those of the aromatic and spicy herbs.

Summary: A very different, fun and daring vermouth, with the wine base of a red wine to drink as an aperitif or dessert, without the need for accompaniment.

Golden colour. Fruity aroma with citrus touches. Flavor with smoky and citrus notes.

Since 1897 there has been a quiet revolution unfolding in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. High up amongst the smooth, rounded peaks of the Monadhliath Mountains there is no room for the rugged and robust. Here patience, a gentle hand and a passion for purity rule the day.

In this idyllic spot the naturally soft water of the Alt-na-Frith burn is introduced to tender Scottish barley. Later, from the tall, slim copper stills of the Tomatin Distillery a mellow, fruity spirit is born. Gentle maturation in the cool, stable environment found high above sea level lets the subtle character of this distinctive Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky emerge. The use of carefully selected casks ensures that the softer characters of the precious spirit are never overpowered.

Lagavulin: Legends take time

The definitive Islay malt. Intensely flavoured, smoky and rich. The windswept Isle of Islay instils a strength of character into everything it produces and it's here, nestled in a small bay that the beloved Lagavulin whisky has been made for over 200 years.

This is a legendary smoky Islay malt, and the benchmark dram of this iconic distillery. Aged in oak casks for at least 16 years, it has intense peat smoke and a rich sweetness on the nose, then sherry, fruit and smoke on the palate, leaving a long, spicy finish with appetising sweetness.​

A treat for the palate. Brandy Prestigio is the result of a long tradition in making this renowned drink. It comes from a special vintage, a 1946 reserve, from which a very limited and controlled series is produced. This brandy is aged using the traditional solera method.

The best fortifying and distilled wines plus a careful ageing process in specially selected oak casks produce a brandy with an intense aroma and consistent flavour.

Vermell is the simplest of our three old reds. The old ones, unlike the classic ones, are only made with native varieties and are only raised in clay jars. Vermell is made with the grapes we have in the lowest part of our estate in Les Alcusses. Below, the soil is more fertile and the yields are higher and this allows us to obtain a very affordable wine but not devoid of character. We harvest rather early to put the emphasis on fresh red fruit. Short and gentle maceration at low temperature helps us avoid heaviness and makes the wine more fluid and easier to drink. The aging in jars gives it elegance without taking away its liveliness. Its first vintage was 2012 and its image is tinted with a fresh red color because that is what we want this wine to be like. Vermell is our approach wine to this pure, simple and sincere landscape.

Curii Uvas y Vinos is the small personal project of Violeta Gutiérrez de la Vega and her partner Alberto Redrado, which is focused on local Alicante varieties and traditional vineyards. Since 2017 they have had a small winery in the Village of Xaló.

Our variety Forcallat is 55 years old and planted ungrafted in sandy soil in the westernmost part of Fontanars, 700 metres above sea level. The 2014 vintage saw cool spring temperatures and moderate rainfall. As of May we had one of the most severe droughts in the last 20 years, with no rain until November, so it was a very dry year. With no irrigation, we increased our tillage work so as to maintain the scarce spring soil moisture, thus bringing the grape harvest forward 12 days with an alcohol content by volume of 14%.

Wine description
After the monastrell, the second autochthonous variety from Els Alforins Valley, is the Garnacha tintorera (Alicante bouschet). Within this wine. we have tried to look for the maritime side of this grape variety, looking for a soil which keeps the freshness and acidity. The soil suited better it was the single vineyard of ruby colour soil due to the high content in iron. . In order to respect this personality, we decided to elaborate the wine as the Friars (los Frailes) did at the Estate, limiting to minimum the intervention at the winery and using the same concrete deposits and anfors as the friars used a long time ago.

Soils
Single vineyard called “La casa de aperos” (“the house of tools”). 650 meters over sea-level. It is ruby colour- limestone soil located in the slope of the mountain highly sensitive to erosion. Soils very rich in iron, thus oxidation changes the limestone colour into a ruby-colour: this effect is known as rubification. These soils are deeper and more porous than the dolomites ones, thus allowing larger storage of water. This is essential for a grape variety as Garnacha tintorera no so resistant to draught, as the Monastrell. Aged of the vineyards 13 year old.

Vinification
The harvest is manual. The work at the winery is limit to a minimum: wild yeasts, light battonages, minimum amount of sulphites and light filtration. 50% are whole grapes. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in old concrete deposits from the c. XVIII where the friars used to elaborate wine. Aging the wine for 10 months in old concrete deposits and anfors.

When the Miñano-Gómez family added Bodegas Monóvar to their wine project, they added white Riesling to their unique varieties. This grape, despite being typical of northern Europe, proved to be very productive and of high quality in the lands of the Vinalopó Valley. The good oenological work of the MGWines team managed to introduce this grape of universal prestige for the first time in the history of Alicante. The climatic conditions, rather dry inland in Alicante, made it necessary to place the vineyard on trellises and carry out controlled irrigation during spring and summer. The nine-hectare plot where it is cultivated combines fertile marl land with calcareous soils and its arrangement on a well-oriented and ventilated slope prevents the presence of diseases. We can say without a doubt that our Riesling is the southernmost in Europe.

Harvesting takes place towards the end of August and, after total destemming, it is fermented at low temperature for two weeks. By November the wine is perfect to be bottled and marketed at Christmas.

With this project, Bodegas Monóvar places itself at the forefront of the Spanish production of this very important variety and fulfills the dream of the people of Alicante of having a great grape and consequently a great white wine.

Unlike its German and French brothers, the Riesling from Bodegas Monóvar is dry, elegant and fruity, ideal for Mediterranean cuisine from the sea and in a hot and temperate climate. It is presented in an amber Rhin bottle which, due to its originality, makes it stand out from most whites.

Harvest

The 2019 harvest cycle was shorter than usual with a lack of rain during the collection which happened from 10th to 20thin September. The vineyards used in the production of this wine are 13 years old and since they were planted have been farmed organically. The production yields of our grapes in this harvest (kilograms / hectare) were from 6,000 to 8,000 kg / ha. This results in a higher concentration of the grape components and therefore a higher quality of the wine.

Winemaking

Maceration of the must with the skins is carried out for 6-12 hours and at a temperature of 6-8ºC. This causes a greater extraction of the aromatic and varietal components, as well as enhances the sensations in the mouth. The racking is long, increasing the contact of film substances with the must for more fruity aromas contribution. The fermentation takes place at low temperatures, 14-16ºC, which helps to maintain and intensify the varietal character. After the fermentation, the wines are kept for a period of time in contact with the fine lees, in order to increase the structural characteristics of the wine, providing fatty acids and wider and glyceric sensations in the mouth. The clarification in all our wines are made without any product from animal origin. .

Wine and Vineyard

A natural sweet red wine, 50% Monastrell and 50% Giró. No added alcohol. We have not sought excessive evolution but we have sought a very nice refinement in French oak barrels, always full. A modern, clearly very clean blended wine.

Vintage characteristics
Fresh vintage, rainy spring and cool summer nights where we had a lot of rain during the harvest.

Harvest
Giró harvested at the beginning of October and mature Monastrell harvested at the beginning of November. Very good health status after several selections in the plant.

Vinification
Fermentation without selected yeasts, it starts slowly and with the arrival of cold weather and the production of natural alcohol the wine slows down until residual sugar remains. The cold is coming, the outside temperatures are already colder and the wine is having a competition from the alcohol that it had created and there is a depletion and the wine is left at 14.5% with about 80 grams of residual sugar.

PRODUCTION AND AGEING: After a 7-day maceration, fermentation starts spontaneously with its own yeasts and a vat stem 5 days before harvesting and we keep it at a controlled temperature of 15ºC in stainless steel tanks. In the first racking of the thick lees, we transfer the wine to 54L glass demijohns, where the wine will age for 8 months before being racked again to be bottled with a light filtration and a low level of sulphites. We add 1º of distillation alcohol from the macerated skins, to stop the fermentation and maintain the sugar in the wine.

The Aszú wines are the differentiating factor of this family of great wines. They combine tradition, innovation and excellence, and become sublime wines with their roots in a unique terroir.

Oremus is the symbol and example of the rewarding of time, experience and knowledge, of the real expertise in the art of wine.

The production of the Aszú wine (wine of tears) is a meticulous process, which requires great patience and extensive know-how. It is only possible in good vintages, when nature brings rain at the end of the summer and sun and wind in early autumn, which are the essential conditions for the process for noble berries to from. The berries swollen due to the humidity split and the "Botrytis cinérea" establishes in its skin and creates the noble rot.

The same formulas are used to make the wines as have been used for hundreds of years.

To the must in a Gönc barrel, that is 136-litres, 3, 5 or 6 23-kg panniers ("puttony" in Hungarian) of Aszú noble berries. The Aszú noble berries are macerated with the must and we then wait for one day or two for the berries to swell and they are then pressed.

The fermentation of the Aszú must is a slow process that can sometimes last up to two months. It is then put into wood barrels and is left in a protected wine press, waiting for the fermentation to stop by itself. We then add a little Eszencia, which has been collected drop by drop from the Aszú berries. We thus symbolically return its soul, which is embodied in the Eszencia.

The Aszú wines are aged in 136-litre (called "Gönc") and 220-litre ("Szerednye") small barrels. Oak from the mountains that border the winemaking region is used to manufacture the barrels. The Aszú ageing takes place in underground wineries dug out in the volcanic soil. The wine is left to age here for 2 to 3 years, at a constant temperature and degree of humidity. After being bottled, the Oremus Aszú is left to continue ageing in the bottle for a year, which is the opportunity for it to embark on a journey of development that can even last several decades.

Château Lamothe is a wine producer in the Sauternes region, known for its sweet wines made from grapes affected by "botrytis cinerea" (noble rot).
