Cuvee Uberland 2021

0 out of 5

Year: 2021 Variety:Merlot 37.3%,Cab Sauv 30%, NDD 12%, Fet Neagra 18.03%;Pinot Noir 2.67% Alcohol content: 14 % Appellation:DOC-CMD Recaș Classification: Dry

Viticulture and Vinification

Central to this wine is the “cane-cut” process. Better parcels of Cabernet and Merlot grapes are left to hang on the vine until fully ripe. Then to further concentrate the flavour, they are partially dried/stressed by cutting the cane on which the bunches are born to separate the grapes from the roots of the vine. Over a period ranging from a week to 20 days (depending on the weather) the grapes begin to soften and finally to appear a little saggy. This is due to evaporative water loss which concentrates the flavour and sugars. At the same time, by some unknown process, additional flavours are formed in the grape as a slight violet-like, floral aroma. These translate into the wine and can be tasted quite strongly in the wine when young and becoming more integrated with time in bottle.

Tasting notes

Ruby red. Aromas of overly ripened fruits are revealed after aeration (sour cherries, cherries, currants and plums), on a background of raisins and Caribbean rum, vanilla san slightly caramel, with an ending of pepper. The acidity is high, fixes the aromas well and gives life to the wine with a good aging potential.

We recommend this wine with:

Pfeffersteak, fillet mignon, large and medium game, boar cooked over the embers, veal, duck, pork dishes, lamb, Mangalitsa pork, beef tartare, mouldy cheeses, desserts with cherries, blackberries, currants, chocolate mousse.

Serving temperature: 14°C - 16°C

La Putere - Feteascã Neagrã

0 out of 5

Year: 2023 Variety: Feteasca Neagra Alcohol content: 13.37% Appellation: DOC-CMD Recas Classification: Dry

Viticulture and Vinification

Feteascã Neagrã grapes for this wine come from special green harvested- yield-reduced vines. Early in the season, workers go through the vineyards and individually cut a percentage of the grapes from the vine and throw them on the vineyard floor. This process is more painful for the viticulturist than the grape vine, which benefits by being able to put more of its resources into the remaining grapes, to give riper and develop more flavour. In the winery the grapes are treated to the same fermentation on-skins process, with controlled temperatures around 28°C and regulated pump overs while on skins to ensure good mixing/fruit extraction.

Tasting notes

Violet red (typical for this variety), good limpidity. Strong aromas of fruits (sour cherries, currants, plums), flowers and slightly vegetal aromas. It initially resembles wet tree roots after rain and the young plants in the forest, followed by notes of fruits and flowers, with vague tints of vanilla. Attack above average, very good acidity, a lively taste, with active, persistent tannins and integrated alcohol. Good body and taste dynamics, slightly vegetal ending interesting aftertaste for a young wine.

We recommend this wine with:

Traditional Romanian dishes, aubergine salad, small and medium game cooked in the oven, pasta with prosciutto, pizza, pork, beef and duck dishes, desserts with cherries, blackberries, currants.

Serving temperature: 16°C - 18°C
