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.

Manufacturer's Considerations
Now that the fermentations are nearly finished, it’s time for our usual overview with respect to the 2017 harvest—or perhaps better, the 2017 vintage year. As expected, the extremely hot weather and lack of rainfall—some 60% less than normal– that marked the entire season brought the harvest forward by two full weeks, which meant that on 18 August the first pinot noir clusters for Rosanoire were already in the cellar, and the white grapes came in just one week later.
