Vertical of Riné 2008-2015

posted on 17 November 2017
I had the pleasure, on 10-11 November, of visiting Antony e Sofie, my importers in Brussels. We had decided to personally visit all their customers, divided into three groups, and taste with them a vertical of Riné, vintages 2008 through 2015, the latter currently on the market. We found the years 2009 and 2012 came out the best, and those were the years, in fact, whose growing seasons gave us conditions that favoured the production of high-quality wines. We also found time to visit some restaurants, who already had Cantrina on their wine lists and appreciated our wines. Warm thanks to Antony and Sofie, for their trust in us and for organising the initiative. It is no easy task to find importers who appreciate niche producers, and who can communicate and sell these wines. It was a terrific experience. Cristina

When it's nice to play while working ...

Really nice evening, the one spent on 17 May at Alma (the International School of Italian Cuisine), starring Chef Riccardo Camanini (Lido 84) and his menu, partially performed, with the students of the upper school course.

Una visita inaspettata

Visita inaspettata Cantrina
A volte capitano strani casi per cui un piccolo gruppo di vitivinicoltori messicani, in vacanza in Italia e quindi sul Lago di Garda, vengano a trovarti in cantina per una breve visita all’azienda e che questo diventi l’occasione per un valido  scambio culturale.

Viaggio in Sicilia

posted on 6 January 2016
Sono particolarmente legato a questa splendida regione per il ricordo di alcune entusiasmanti esperienze lavorative e non solo, che mi avevano portato là a fine anni Novanta e mi avevano fatto conoscere una Sicilia per me allora sorprendente e sconosciuta. Così, con rinnovato entusiasmo ho colto al volo l’invito di un amico-fornitore ad accompagnarlo per un breve viaggio di lavoro/piacere nella parte orientale dell’isola.
