Puglia Wine Exploration Part 5

プーリアワイン探訪その5

Ristorante Cortesia Puglia Wine Exploration ~All About Puglia Wine~ Introducing Puglia's wineries, wine situation, stories and history of grape varieties. The 5th is the natural winery "Vallone" representing the Salento region of Puglia Founded in 1934, this winery is located in the large city of Lecce in the south of Puglia, which is blessed with a warm Mediterranean climate. The fields are scattered near the sea, and all are certified organic. The area is very suitable for growing grapes with moderate rainfall in winter and dry in summer, and calcareous clay soils mixed with Mediterranean winds and well-drained pebbles provide the grapes with just the right amount of moisture and a good mineral balance. All wines carefully made from grapes produced from such an environment have a beautiful taste and show the characteristics of the variety well. When Mr. Francesco, the owner of Vallone, visited the restaurant before, he emphatically said, "Wine with a natural taste will lead the future." The wines he makes are just like that, they are full of fruitiness, but they are also full of fruit, but they are also very pleasant with a pleasant taste that spreads softly and spreads aromas, and they are all wonderful wines that give a glimpse of the maker's thoughts. Of course, it is highly regarded in Italy, and Vallone's best wine, "Graticciaia", continues to receive high praise in various evaluation newspapers. We serve standard line Chardonnay by the glass. The taste with a sense of aging that is perfect for the coming season will complement your meal.

Puglia Wine Exploration Part 4

プーリアワイン探訪その4

Ristorante Cortesia Puglia Wine Exploration ~All About Puglia Wine~ Introducing Puglia's wineries, wine situation, stories and history of grape varieties. The fourth event will be held in Mandulia, one of the major black grape varieties in Puglia, "Produttori Vini di manduria", the oldest producer cooperative in Puglia, founded in 1932. This cooperative, which has about 700 growers, widely cultivates the region's representative variety "Primitivo" on an area of about 900 ha. In the 2000s, the winery switched to cultivation with reduced pesticides and is steadily increasing its reputation. Perhaps because of this, the standard line red wine "Lirica Primitivo di manduria" has been awarded the highest rating in Trevicchieri (highest rating) for the third consecutive year since the 2017 vintage in Gambero rosso, Italy's most prestigious evaluation guide. It was a great honor for the winery. Wine lovers' tastes have changed with the times, and wines with strong tannins are required to be elegant and rich in fruit. The taste of Primitivo is also changing. In the past, Primitivo had many strong wines that emphasized fruitiness, but in recent years, the number of wines that clearly feel the taste of grapes while being beautiful has increased, and many producers believe that the future of this variety is bright. I think it is meaningful that such producers were evaluated in the process of friendly competition. In addition, the rosé wine made from Primitivo is also excellent, and when our chef Ebe was introduced in the magazine "Alceo" published in Italy by "Produttori Vini di manduria", an article was published about this rosé wine. By the way, we always have both red and rosé in glasses and bottles. Please try it!

Puglian Wine Exploration Part 3

プーリアワイン探訪その3

Ristorante Cortesia Puglia Wine Exploration ~This and That of Puglian Wine~ Introduces Puglian wineries, wine conditions, stories and history related to grape varieties, etc. The third was "Leone de Castris", the oldest winery in Puglia founded in 1665 and a producer with a history and tradition that represents the famous brewing area of Puglia "Salice Salentino". It is said to be the first producer in Italy to bottle rosé wine. In the 1940s, when small-town wineries in southern Italy rarely received much attention, there was an event that led to the winery's fame spreading throughout Italy. At the heart of the story is a rosé wine called "Five Roses" by Leone de Castris. It was ordered by an American officer stationed in Italy during the war, and it crossed the ocean as the first bottled rosé wine in Italy and became widely known as one of the most famous Italian wines in the United States. Later, it was sold in Italy under the English name "Five Roses", and the name spread throughout Italy. It is thought that because of such an event, the image of "Puglia = rosé wine" became entrenched. Cortesia always has this "Five Roses" available. Think of the first bottled rosé wine in Italy and taste it lightly. In addition, the white wine "Messapia Verdeca" made with the local variety "Verdeca" variety of Puglia is also one of the recommended bottles with a dry taste with umami! When Leone de Castris' owner, Piernicola Leone de Castris, came to Japan and asked for this wine, he readily agreed, saying, "I want you to put it there!" Now it has become a special wine that has been stocked only for our shop. Both have a mineral-rich taste that is perfect for this season, and the compatibility with dishes is outstanding!!

Puglian Wine Exploration Part 2

プーリアワイン探訪その2

Ristorante Cortesia Puglia Wine Exploration ~All About Puglia Wine~ We will regularly introduce the wineries and wine situation in Puglia, as well as stories and history related to grape varieties. In the second installment, we introduced Cantine Due Palme, a producer cooperative that manages a vast field of 2,200 hectares on the Heel-Salento Peninsula in Italy. The winery started relatively new, in 1989, and had about 400 members at the time of its start. The concept is to carefully manage the vineyards managed by the members in a manageable area, and to provide incentives to members to produce high-quality grapes, so that they can always produce high-quality grapes. More importantly, most of the grape varieties grown in this cooperative are indigenous to Salento, such as Negroamaro, Primitivo, Susumaniello, Malvasia Nera and Malvasia Bianca. That is how much they care about this land. All of the wines produced in this way are characterized by a fruity taste that has been bathed in the southern Italian sun. They continue to make wines that convey the brightness and cheerfulness of southern Italy from all their wines. In addition, the top cuvée "Selvarossa" has always been highly rated in Italian newspapers and is now regarded as one of the leading wines of Puglia. This wine has a good taste with a moderate sense of aging, and it is recommended to pair it with grilled meat dishes, which is Chef Ebe's specialty. You will be able to feel the umami increase even more. Cortesia has a lineup of several wines from "Due Palme", starting with this "Selvarossa". If you are interested, please come and taste it.

Ristorante Cortesia Puglia Wine Exploration ~All About Puglia Wine~ We will regularly introduce the wineries and wine situation in Puglia, as well as stories and history related to grape varieties. In the first installment, we will introduce the winery "Tenute Rubino", which is familiar with Cortesia He played a key role in reviving the almost extinct Puglian local variety called "Susumaniello". The owner, Luigi, believed in the potential of "Susumaniello" and focused on its revival, creating a wonderful wine called "Torre Testa". All the wines he makes take care of terroir, and the original taste of the grapes is firmly felt, but they are beautifully put together and finished in a comfortable drink. In recent years, we have taken on the challenge of new varieties and reviewed our existing lineup, and we are a producer that is constantly evolving. We have a close relationship with Chef Ebe, and when he comes to Japan, he often visits us and enjoys the marriage of Chef Ebe's food with his own wine.
