Trip to the USA…

posted on 5 May 2017
After two years of working closely with Sussex Wine Merchants, I finally flew to New York to personally meet their team. I found them very accommodating and ultra-efficient, and they planned and helped me with every stop on my itinerary. Christopher and Elan took me to Manhattan, then to Moore Brothers' first wine shop in Brooklyn, then to the other Moore Brothers’ shops in New Jersey and Delaware, all equally impressive. And we ended up with Yves in Atlantic City. I want to warmly thank the entire staff of Moore Brothers for the wonderful hospitality they showed me in all their shops; I was so impressed by their extraordinary professionalism and by the great enthusiasm they show in communicating the world of wine and in introducing their producers’ wines. I truly appreciated how effectively and sincerely they represented and conveyed my own winemaking philosophy. Many thanks to Greg, Dave, and Frank for the great sensitivity and openness they showed me. I feel fortunate indeed to be part of Moore Brothers Wine Choice, together with my winemaking friends of Bele Casel, Paola and Luca

ProWein 2015

Here I am back from Prowein, and this year simply confirms my opinion from the first year I participated, that it’s a thoroughly professional event, and very useful to wine professionals. Yes, there’s a lot of activity in the halls, but it’s quite calm and serious, and one doesn’t get over-tired.

Still in cork, but in the future… who knows?

Thank you very much for participating in our survey. All of your opinions were valuable to us, and we would like to report to you what we have decided regarding screwcaps for our Valtènesi (Groppello) and Riné. In spite of the strong preference by sector professionals in favour of screwcaps, we realize that it is still premature for Cantrina to utilise screwcaps for the larger part of our wines.

Cork or Screwcap? That is the question

I would like to solicit your opinion regarding use of screwcaps. As a consequence of the positive results with our Rosanoire 2013 and 2014, we are evaluating the possibility of using it on our other wines.
