Wine tour Cortona and Montepulciano
If your holiday villa is located in the Cortona – Montepulciano
area, then you most definitely will want to explore the
local vineyards and wind cellars. Cortona’s viticultural
history dates back to the Etruscan times and has become
important with its DOC awarded wines made from a variety
of grape blends such as rich Sangiovese, Pinot Nero, Merlot,
Cabernet Sauvignon and the most important of the area...
Syrah.
Montepulciano, located just west of Cortona, at about a 20
minutes drive, also boasts an ancient viticulture. The Rosso
di Montepulciano is a dry red and is a more modern, less
structured wine while Il Nobile di Montepulciano is most
definitely the most important wine of this area.

Italian Wine Cellar: Cantina Alta Padovana - www.cantinaaltapadovana.it
- The staff mission of Cantina Alta Padovana is to devote to whom loves to find again the signs of a tradition in continuous evolution, confirmed by dozens of affectionate clients that daily frequent the shop.
The zones on which the vineyards of Cantina Alta Padovana rise have reached the maximum expansion in the second postwar period; the numerous pieces of ground, for social-economic matters, have been vinified jointly bringing a high technical contribution thanks to the availability of capitals for the refinement and the bottling of the wine.
At that age the wine was preserved in cement tanks and barrels rigorously of wood.
The zone finds its limits to west from the Brenta river, to south from the city of Padua, to east from the state road Padua-Treviso and to north from the provincial road that from Camposampiero brings to S. Maria di Sala.
A territory of notable dimensions that contains in itself well thirteen Communes. This area primarily produces red wines as in the past centuries Venice asked for enormous quantity of it, both for internal use really and for the commerce in the whole Mediterranean Basin.
For over half century it is tradition to contribute to Cantina Alta Padovana practically the whole viticultural production inclusive among the Brenta river and the city of St. Anthony. In 1996 the cooperative has completed the new wine cellar endowed with modern enological equipments and highly qualified personal. In 2004 with a new constitutive act, the Cantina Sociale di Campodarsego turns into Cantina Alta Padovana. A name that includes the real origin area of the grapes brought for vinification.
The whole building is ten meters high and it develops in an only span, in fact there are no inside pillars. The shed is sustained by 275 poles of 6 to 12 meters to unload to earth the weight of the gigantic siloses in the maximum safety without staticity problems. The control of processes (from planting, to breeding ways, to verifications during maturation, to the harvest moment), the specialization courses of vine-growing held in Cantina for its own associates, allows the Cantina Alta Padovana to confirm year after year the Quality System ISO 9001 and Environmental ISO 14001 Certifications for musts production.
The philosophy of Cantina Alta Padovana is that to bring on tables a pleasant wine of organoleptic elegant qualities and rich of added values as environment respect in wine-growing and production phases. The wine production chain starts directly in the rows with modern and efficient techniques of wine-growing, making grapevine thriving and easily monitorable in the whole phase of the development up to the vintage. This last one in the territory of Cantina Alta Padovana is generally carried out by hand, giving therefore the last manual contribution to wine production.
It's important to note that the whole state of fermentation is constantly monitored by sophisticated analysis of control to ensure to the consumer optimal organoleptic characteristics of wine.
Passed last controls the wine is filtered by a plant called tangential filter that ensures the absence of impurities also of small dimensions and the stability, hence it moves to bottling phase, where in automatized way wine is manufactured in bottles that are corked, sealed, labelled and crammed into boxes or cartons to be sent to commercial sector.
Wine produced by Cantina Alta Padovana can be found in the Wine Shop, available loose or in bottle.
Here various qualities of wines are found, both internally produced or coming from neighboring doc areas from other regions.
Cantina Alta Padovana celebrated its 50th harvest with the birth of DOC Riviera del Brenta and in 2005 were presented to the market the first bottles with success.
The district of this DOC that means Denominazione di Origine Controllata (Controlled Designation of Origin) involves the wine-growing areas of the Brenta River basin from NORTH-EAST of Padua to the countries of Venice Municipality. The wineries who are part are: Cantina Alta Padovana and three wineries of Venice Province. The environment from which it takes origin the DOC Riviera del Brenta is rich of traditions and wine culture by now millenary tied up to the ancient time with the Roman Empire before, and with the Venetian Republic then, up to the actual expressions.

The Search for the True Chianti
Bill Nesto, Master of Wine; Co-Founder, Wine Studies Program, Metropolitan College, Boston University; Senior Lecturer, Metropolitan College and School of Hospitality Administration, Boston University
Frances Di Savino, Attorney and Author
For most of the twentieth century, the name Chianti brought to mind a generic Italian red table wine in a straw-covered flask, rather than evoking the storied wine region in the heart of Tuscany. Bill Nesto and Frances Di Savino, co-authors of Chianti Classico: The Search for Tuscany’s Noblest Wine, will share the story of their quest to discover the true Chianti. They will describe the evolution of Chianti as a wine region with historic, cultural, and geographic complexity, then guide guests through a tasting of wines from one of Chianti Classico’s iconic estates.

Driving toward Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a commune in the Vaucluse department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France.
Châteauneuf-du-Pape is firmly entwined with papal history. In 1308, Pope Clement V, former Archbishop of Bordeaux, relocated the papacy to the city of Avignon. Clement V and subsequent Avignon Popes were said to be great lovers of wine and did much to promote it during the seventy-year duration of the Avignon Papacy. At the time, winegrowing around the town of Avignon was anything but illustrious. While the Avignon Papacy did much to advance the reputation of wines from Burgundy, the papacy also promoted viticulture in the surrounding area, more specifically the area 5 to 10 kilometres (3 to 6 miles) north of Avignon, close to the banks of the Rhône River. Prior to the Avignon Papacy, viticulture of the area had been initiated and maintained by the Bishops of Avignon, largely for local consumption.
Clement V was succeeded by John XXII, who regularly drank the wines from the vineyards to the north, as well as Burgundy wine, and did much to improve viticultural practices there. Under John XXII, the wines of this area came to be known as Vin du Pape; this term later became Châteauneuf-du-Pape. John XXII is also responsible for erecting the famous castle that stands as a symbol for the appellation, and the name means the Pope's new castle.
The village and three other surrounding communes produce wine, and Châteauneuf-du-Pape is an Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC) in the southern Rhône wine region.

Healdsburg marathon - it's okay to wine by Sergey Egorov
It's okay to wine at Healdsburg half marathon :)
The weather and course scenery could not have been more spectacular as runners enjoyed a picture perfect day in the Wine Country as they ran 13.1 miles from Rosso & Bianco Winery to the Lake Sonoma recreation area.
Journey through the picturesque Alexander and Dry Creek Valleys in Sonoma County, California on our most secenic course yet. Start at Francis Ford Coppola Present's Rosso & Bianco Winery, and finish at spacious Warm Springs recreation area near Lake Sonoma for the popular Wine & Music Festival. You'll wind through 21 wineries and thousands of acres of autumn-colored vineyards on this amazing course designed by Destination Races, producers of the Napa-to-Sonoma and Santa Barbara Wine Country Half Marathons.
Winemaking has been a Coppola family tradition for several generations. In fact, Agostino Coppola, Francis Coppola's grandfather, used to make wine in the basement of his New York apartment building using concrete vats he constructed himself. According to Uncle Mikey, they weren't fancy wines, just pleasant everyday drinking wines that anyone could enjoy.
The wines that Francis Coppola makes today aren't the same as those Agostino made, but they are produced in the same spirit—for sharing with friends and family.
It started over 30 years ago, when Francis and Eleanor Coppola and their kids were living in San Francisco. They were eager to find a small cottage in Napa Valley as a weekend retreat where they could make a little homemade wine. The family cottage they so desired turned out to be the great Niebaum Mansion on the famed Inglenook Estate. Suddenly, the prospect of restoring that legendary property sounded more exciting than making a little bit of wine in the basement.
Once they had successfully accomplished the estate's restoration—a 30- year endeavor—the Coppola family decided to build a new winery so that at long last they could give a home to their ever-popular Diamond Collection and Rosso & Bianco wine brands. Since these wines have always reflected the gracious style of everyday living, Francis Coppola Presents Rosso & Bianco winery is the ideal place for friends and family to enjoy these wines, have a bite to eat, and relax outdoors in a comfortable, casual setting. of everyday living, Francis Coppola Presents Rosso & Bianco winery is the ideal place for friends and family to enjoy these wines, have a bite to eat, and relax outdoors in a comfortable, casual setting.
Approximately 16 miles long and 2 miles wide, Dry Creek Valley is one of the smallest enclosed American Viticultural Areas. Roughly 9,300 acres of vineyards extend along the valley floor, the surrounding benchlands and hillsides, and 58 wineries produce a diverse selection of wines ranging from the renowned Zinfandels to Bordeaux and Mediterranean varietals. The history of grape growing and winemaking in Dry Creek Valley is among the longest in California, with its roots beginning more than 130 years ago.
