Details and technical informations about Winery Platinum's Sakura Extra Dry.
Discover the grape variety: Négret castrais
The négret castrais is called mauzac noir. It is in the region of Toulouse that we find this variety doomed to disappear. Its origins are to be found in the Gaillac region, where it reaches maturity during the second period. The plant likes clay-limestone soils. It can be recognized by its late buds. Its bunches have short peduncles bearing compact, truncated cone-shaped loads. They are often winged and loaded with medium-sized berries. The pulp is covered with a thick skin whose colour is more or less red depending on the sun exposure of the bunch. Worms, excoliosis and powdery mildew are the main enemies of this variety. When vinified, Castres Negret gives off a fairly good character from its mauzac stock. The wine gives off notes of vanilla, apple, pear and jasmine. The juice is not very colourful and light in the mouth.

The wine region of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Italian star of accessible, structured reds (no link to the Tuscan town). Montepulciano grape (min. 85%): deep robe, intense aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, sweet spices and balsamic notes, round tannins and a juicy finish. Direct, fruity everyday style, or denser Riserva aged in barrel for cellaring.
The wine region of Abruzzo
Accessible, identity-driven Italian duo. Montepulciano d'Abruzzo as red: deep colour, intense aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, sweet spices and balsamic notes, round tannins and a gourmet finish, from everyday to age-worthy Riserva. Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOCG as a fleshy, fruity rosé (strawberry, pomegranate). Trebbiano d'Abruzzo as a straight white with citrus and white flowers, sublimated by a few cult producers (Valentini).
The word of the wine: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
