Details and technical informations about Winery Sottano's Demi Sec.
Discover the grape variety: Raisaine
Most certainly Ardéchoise, formerly cultivated in the region of Privas, Aubenas, Joyeuse and Largentière. It is the result of a natural intra-specific crossing between the black ribier and the red grec. Today, Raisaine is totally absent from the vineyards and is therefore in danger of disappearing, although it is listed in the Official Catalogue of Wine Grapes, list A.

The wine region of Mendoza
Mendoza is by far the largest wine region in Argentina. Located on a high-altitude plateau at the edge of the Andes Mountains, the province is responsible for roughly 70 percent of the country's annual wine production. The French Grape variety Malbec has its New World home in the vineyards of Mendoza, producing red wines of great concentration and intensity. The province Lies on the western edge of Argentina, across the Andes Mountains from Chile.
The word of the wine: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
