Merlot and lake air purity and power - Echo of Berganmo

Eco di Bergamo describes Azienda Agricola Cantrina's Nepomuceno wine in an article, and here are the most important points: MERLOT AND LAKE AIR PURITY AND POWER. (...) A pure Merlot of unusual power (15 degrees alcohol and a lot of density) but also perfectly balanced, harmonious and even flowing in spite of the analytical data. And Nepomuceno 2003 (from San Giovanni Nepomuceno) from Cantrina di Bedizzole in the Brescia area, a small winery run with extraordinary passion by Cristina Inganni. (...)

From volcanoes to glacial moraine with Nepomuceno, Merlot IGT Benaco Bresciano 2003 from the Cantrina winery in Bedizzole (Brescia) where only international grape varieties are cultivated. Diego Lavo, owner with his wife Cristina Inganni, emphasised the importance of precisely this type of soil squeezed between fluvial and glacial deposits that characterises their Merlot. The vintage was perfect because an unexpected hailstorm in June had destroyed the 70% of grapes. This forced thinning, which we, lucidly, would never have had the courage to do, allowed the grapes to ripen excellently, rich in glycerine and alcohol

Raise your glasses to Merlot - Lombardy on the table

With the success obtained with the Benaco Bresciano Nepomuceno 2003, in particular, the Cantrina winery has repeated the prestigious result already achieved two years ago with the wine from the 2001 harvest. Lombardy, and in particular the Garda area, is therefore among the most suitable areas for Merlot, and Cantrina proves this. “From the outset,” said Cristina Inganni of the Cantrina winery, "we have been oriented towards the production of medium and long ageing wines based on international wines. The choice may appear counter to the Gardesana tradition, but we believe that this can be a personal opportunity to express the idea of territory, of terroir, given that the same grape variety offers extremely different results in situations that are geographically and culturally distant".

The Azienda Agricola “Cantrina” managed, in the first person, by Crìstina Inganni has succeeded in making this synthesis, dedicating its production to the finest crus of a historic wine house, desired by Dario Dattoli, a lover of French wines, “transferred” to the gentle hills of Lake Garda. Upon the untimely death of the young entrepreneur Dario Dattoli (1998), his young wife Cristina Inganni, a set designer by profession in Milan (Brera Academy) decided to continue the project with the collaboration of Diego Lavo, an expert in the field of agriculture and wine production, assisted by the Zynè oenological team.
