WHY THE SCREW CAP?

posted on 4 June 2024

ORGANIC WINE AT CANTRINA

Right from the very start of our efforts as Winegrowers, we have firmly committed ourselves to producing high quality wine, and always with profound respect for the local terroir and overall environment in which we work.

WHY THE SCREW CAP?

 
  • Drastic reduction of sulphite use at bottling, better for the wine and for consumers’ health
  • The wine holds up better and retains its freshness.
  • Much easier to use "un-screw/ re-screw" feature that re-inserting traditional corks.
  • Low environmental impact and re-cyclable, versus cork forests, which have been devastated in recent years by unresponsible bark-stripping.
  • No more bad-smelling “corked wine” wine from those defective corks

The wine-grower’s post-harvest wrap-up

Considerazioni del produttore
Now that the fermentations are nearly finished, it’s time for our usual overview with respect to the 2017 harvest—or perhaps better, the 2017 vintage year. As expected, the extremely hot weather and lack of rainfall—some 60% less than normal– that marked the entire season brought the harvest forward by two full weeks, which meant that on 18 August the first pinot noir clusters for Rosanoire were already in the cellar, and the white grapes came in just one week later.
