Cork or Screwcap? That is the question

posted on 11 February 2015
I would like to have your opinion on the use of the screw cap, we are considering using it on our other wines after the happy experience with the Rosanoire 2013 e 2014. Our considerations are these:
  • better product retention and freshness
  • practicality and cost-effectiveness for users of the “screw-unscrew” opening certainly greater than for traditional closures
  • low environmental impact, recyclability of the cork and saving cork oak forests that have been depleted in recent years by uncontrolled decortication
  • drastic reduction of sulphites added at bottling for the benefit of the integrity and respect of the wine and the health of consumers
  • end of all those annoying organoleptic alterations due in some way to corks
Your opinion on this is very much appreciated, as we would possibly intend to deploy it soon on the Valtènesi 2014 e Rinè 2014... Technically there would be no problem, indeed, but what do you think? Email us at info@cantrina.it.

WHY THE SCREW CAP?

Right from the very start of our efforts as Winegrowers, we have firmly committed ourselves to producing high quality wine, and always with profound respect for the local terroir and overall environment in which we work.

Riné

posted on 21 March 2022
We’d like to talk to you a bit about our Riné. Although it has changed over the years, we conceived Cantrina’s white wine--our distinctive blend of Riesling and Chardonnay, and a bit of other white varieties we grow here in our estate vineyards--as one that would evolve and mature with cellaring, offering its best even many years after bottling. We noticed, though, in the few years, that we were often forced to sell Riné too soon, and thus offering our customers a wine that was still inexpressive and therefore not fully appreciated for what it really was.

Scents of Must
We are joining the Profumi di Mosto 2020 edition on October, 11th. Cantrina's wines will be matched with Pietro Freddi's special pizzas, which will be prepared on the spot from his Pizza-Van. This edition will be a bridge between the just-ended summertime and 2021 events. Profumi di Mosto will also host twenty wineries, where rose wines and Valtènesi red wines will be protagonists.
