Le Donne del Vino Association: one year as Lombardy Delegate

posted on 16 March 2014
I recently concluded my experience as Lombardy Delegate of the National Association Le Donne del Vino and I would like to share with you some thoughts on what it means to make a commitment to association when you have direct responsibility in a company like Cantrina. 2013 was a year full of initiatives for the Regional Delegation: we took part in the 50th anniversary celebration of Coin in Milan by offering our products for tasting, we attended Italia in Rosa in Moniga del Garda, we managed to organise very quickly the wonderful 25th anniversary party for the Lombardy Delegation, and on this occasion we helped an important non-profit organisation and found an important partnership that will be repeated for future events. We produced the folder representing our region and members, opened the Facebook page... and I am certainly forgetting something. What have I realised after one year? Association commitment can really give a lot, but there are times when a producer feels the need to dedicate himself completely to his mission. I will certainly still be supportive of the new Delegate, but many commitments are coming up, such as Cantrina's presence at Prowein.

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

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.
