Unexpected visit Cantrina

Una visita inaspettata

posted on 27 April 2016
Sometimes strange cases occur when a small group of Mexican winegrowers, on holiday in Italy and therefore on Lake Garda, come to your winery for a short visit and this becomes an opportunity for a valuable cultural exchange. As chance would have it, the wives of these wine producers, from the Guadalupe Valley - Baja California, wanted to get to know the winery of a female producer, to see if there is indeed a female version of the wine world. As you can see from the photograph, the men were certainly more interested in the technical side and cultivation practices than in the let's say philosophical side, and Diego was invaluable as always... thank you partner. It was certainly a very pleasant and stimulating Saturday afternoon for both parties, and a heartfelt thank you goes to Angelo Dalbon, to whom we owe this fine initiative. Cristina

Cantrina Farm
Spring has arrived in Cantrina and we are enjoying the awakening of nature in a strange and silent environment. Nature is not stopping but some of our activities are and we are working in the vineyard and in the cellar to prepare a bright coming back, as soon it will be sensible and possible. Italy is facing COVID-19 emergency and the whole country is locked down, but essential services, production and logistics are ensured. Gradually every country is implementing necessary measures and we hope you are coping with them without trouble. We want to tell you that we are fine and we are sure we will manage and overcome the emergency. We feel lucky to have the opportunity to spend the quarantine in such a wonderful place as Cantrina and we want to share it with you through some pictures, waiting for the time when it will be again possible to welcome you here and give you a hug.

Riné gains a screw cap

Cantrina - Riné screw cap
This coming March, the new 2018 vintage of Riné, its second vintage as a certified organic wine, will debut on the market under a screw cap for the first time, and so we want to talk a bit about this type of closure. We have been using this closure for some years now for Rosanoire, and since last year for our latest-born Valtènesi Chiaretto. We have found the results positive in terms of cellarability, soundness, and crispness, in particular over the medium- and long-term; our customers, often tired of opening wines that were tainted, have expressed full satisfaction.
