Uncorked Bottles - Internet Gourmet
We publish here the most important points of an article published by Internet Gourmet after a tasting of Azienda Agricola Cantrina's Eretico wine:
(...) Heretic 2003 Cantrina
Heretic, just heretic. When you tell people it's a pinot noir raisin wine, they shudder.
Then they taste it and... It took Cristina Inganni's winemaking extremism to come up with such a wine. Which is the child of her vintage: a very hot 2003. And since they have quite a lot of pinot noir in Cantrina, a contradina in the extreme hinterland of Lake Garda in the Brescia area, and the grapes were over-ripe, Cristina decided to dare the unthinkable. And so, a red wine of absolute heresy was born.
A single barrique. Then finished in a few small 0.375 barrels.
It is a memorable wine, believe me. (...)
