Averesti Diamond Busuioaca de Averesti Medium Sweet

0 out of 5

TECHNICAL INFORMATION:

  • Type: Medium Sweet
  • Alcohol: 13%
  • Color: Rose
  • Oak aging: No

ORIGIN:

The philosophy of AVEREȘTI wine is the key word that designates not just any Busuioaca, but only the original one, which has enjoyed the recognition of specialists and amateurs for decades (some say even centuries). The Busuioaca grapes here have found the best soil and climate conditions to express themselves tastefully and aromatically in a unique way - often imitated but never equalled. Here, at Averești, through the careful cultivation of several biotypes of Busuioaca, seductive wines are born with freshness, intensity of taste, and quality of aromas that set the benchmark for this variety.
MAKING PROGRESS:
Grapes were harvested in the morning until 10 o'clock, by hand with great care, at a sugar content of 195g/l., then destemmed without crushing. The grapes were cooled to a temperature of 10°C and then macerated in the press for 6 hours. After gravity settling for 24 hours, the must was fermented in 2000L vessels at 12°C for 18 days.
TASTING:
Fresh aromas of rose and basil. Appetizing taste of ripe citrus and rose sweetness. Long, memorable finish. Serve very well chilled (8°C) accompanied by music, dancing, and lots of friends. The high concentration of sugar amplifies the flavors, making this wine an excellent dessert or accompaniment, but also a companion for dishes with sweet and sour sauce.

Averesti Diamond Zghihara de Averesti

0 out of 5

TECHNICAL INFORMATION:

  • Type: Dry
  • Alcohol: 13%
  • Color: White
  • Oak aging: No

ORIGIN:

Zghihara is an authentic Romanian variety whose history begins many centuries before the phylloxera invasion. Its very name shows its belonging to the area of Moldavia, more precisely Huși because when we refer to this variety we can only say that it is zghihăț (zglobiu), it wins you over by its simplicity, but also by the refinement gained thanks to the care with which, at our Averești Estate, this variety is vinified. Zghiharei grapes are very resistant to frost, drought, manna, they ripen later, at the end of September, beginning of October, without a very high concentration of sugar, consequently the resulting wine rarely exceeds 12.5% alcohol by volume."
MAKING PROGRESS: Grapes were harvested in the morning until 10 o'clock, by hand with great care, at a sugar content of 195g/l., then destemmed without crushing. The grapes were cooled to a temperature of 10°C and then macerated in the press for 6 hours. The grapes were harvested by hand. The grapes were macerated at low temperatures, and the pressing was done cold. Fermentation of the must took place in stainless steel vessels at controlled temperatures. TASTING: Zghihară wine is a zghihăt (Playful) wine, where the high acidity blends very well with the full and refreshing taste in which we find fruity notes of green apple, gooseberries, but also vegetal traces of green bell pepper and fennel. The aftertaste is short to medium, mineral, with a citric and slightly bitter finish with traces of apricot kernels. Serve well chilled (8-10°C), it can be enjoyed at any time of the day, both as an aperitif and as an accompaniment to fish dishes, seafood, white meat, as well as dishes with soft-ripened cheeses.

The philosophy of Zghihara wine is a special variety, a wild noble whose strong personality and stingy nature, settled in the land of Huși thousands of years ago, has perfected a wine that stands out from the classical patterns.
