Platinetti Guido è una azienda a conduzione familiare da 4 generazioni a partire dall'inizio degli anni settanta fondata a Ghemme nell'alto piemonte da Platinetti Guido e il suo genero Mario Fontana acquistando i primi ettari nella zona di “Ronco Maso”. A condurre adesso l'azienda sono il nipote di Guido e suo figlio, Andrea e Pietro.Il lavoro in vigna segue i bisogni della pianta in ogni stagione rispettandone i ritmi produttivi e limitando lo stress derivante dagli interventi tecnici esterni.Al tempo della vendemmia ogni operazione è svolta manualmente per permettere al vignaiolo di selezionare, grappolo per grappolo, l'uva da dedicare ad ogni etichetta al fine di ottenere il prodotto della massima qualità possibile.Una volta in azienda l'uva viene lavorata all'aperto, a diretto contatto con la temperatura esterna senza intenzioni di controllo se non in forma naturale, con la ferma coscienza che il mosto sappia trovare da sé il proprio equilibrio.L'uva viene pigiata e diraspata man mano che viene raccolta, per mantenere al massimo la freschezza e l'integrità del frutto. Il mosto in piena fermentazione del pied de cuve, uno starter della fermentazione con i lieviti indigeni provenienti dal vigneto ,viene aggiunto alla massa appena ammostata in modo che la fermentazione parta una decina d'ore dalla raccolta. Non viene aggiunta solforosa durante la vinificazione ma solo successivamente, al termine delle fermentazioni maleolattiche.Una filosofia minimalista, dettata dall'esperienza di generazioni e riassumibile nell'equazione per cui se si è lavorato bene in vigna non occorre intervenire oltre. Solo un ingrediente è sempre aggiunto: il tempo . Così nella cantina stipata di grandi botti di rovere, al vino viene lasciato tutto il tempo di riposare fino a quando non è pronto.Con questa maniera antica e rispettosa che ogni anno vedono la luce grandi vini, capaci di raccontare la loro storia senza bisogno di presentazioni e di conquistare dal primo all' ultimo bicchiere.

Episode 42 – It’s a Piedmont Party! (With an Offer You Can’t Refuse) Pete and VinoMike are back after a week off due to, well, 2020. This year is all about adapting and the guys are giving it their best shot. Once again, they are forced to record from separate studios. There were only a few tears shed before the recording began. To ease the burden, your hosts each pop a bottle from their favorite wine region – Piedmont! VinoMike starts it off with a beautiful bottle of Barbaresco from Beivuma. The 2016 Beivuma “Valeirano” Barbaresco. This private label comes from the Ada Nada winery, one of the absolute gems of Barbaresco. It is a single-vineyard offering that offers insane value. There are only a few others making wine from this vineyard and those bottles go for upwards of $100 a bottle, and as much as $200. This one? About $43. If you can get it, buy it! (Reach out to your hosts and they will see if they can help.) The guys wax poetic about truffles during this segment. There is nothing – NOTHING – like Nebbiolo and truffles. If you have never tried this pairing, now is the time. (And there is a special offer below to help you if you live in IL.) Next up, Pete also chooses a Barbera d’Alba from Ghiomo. The 2018 Ghiomo “Lavai” Barbera d’Alba is absolutely delicious and a perfect choice for your Thanksgiving table. Much softer and approachable than the young Nebbiolo VinoMike had in his glass. Both wines definitely offer pure joy and are worth seeking out. Pete and VinoMike finish up the show talking about the first offer of wines from Wines On The Bluff. This is a new project from Thad Morrow and features wines from their friend, Paolo at Beivuma. They are currently shipping to IL. The case includes six bottles (two each) of some of the best Piedmont has to offer. This includes five single-vineyard offerings with a pair of Baroli and even a ten-year-old Ghemme from La Torretta. The wines alone are worth the $400. But they throw in a black truffle imported directly from Italy. Seriously, Pete and VinoMike may have sounded like an infomercial but they just really wanted to show how great this offer is. Get it while you can because truffles don’t last forever! Click HERE to check out the full offer from Wines On The Bluff. Please be sure to tell them you heard about it on That Wine Pod! NOTE – This is NOT a sponsored segment.

Niente Langhe, Barolo e Barbaresco. Il piemontese Soldati decide di riservare il primo viaggio nella sua regione ai territori del Nord, aggiungendovi un'incursione in Valle d'Aosta.Lessona, Bramaterra, Caluso, Carema: “un po' come mandare in campo la seconda squadra”, si permette di giocare, alla luce delle tante pagine memorabili dedicate ai migliori vini di queste zone (vedi anche Ghemme e Gattinara) in altri articoli, racconti, romanzi.Ridendo e scherzando, però, Soldati inquadra da subito il gap che il Nord Piemonte già sconta nei primi anni '70 rispetto ad altre aree, e che si sarebbe ulteriormente ampliato nei decenni a seguire, perlomeno fino al nuovo millennio. Quando il distretto comincia pian piano a riconquistarsi attenzione, anche grazie al fascino per molti versi retrò di vini indiscutibilmente originali, legati a doppio filo alle specificità viticole e geologiche di un territorio complesso, ma al tempo stesso capace di suggerire una riconoscibile identità trasversale.Di tutto questo, e molto altro, parliamo con due brillanti scrittori e divulgatori, nonché appassionati conoscitori della vitienologia nord-piemontese.Con Fabio Pracchia, redattore della guida Slow Wine e autore del libro “I sapori del vino” (Slow Food Editore) ripercorriamo le tappe dell'itinerario soldatiano, scandite dalla leggenda dei tre vescovi di Biella, Ivrea e Aosta, con le loro bottiglie e vettovaglie.Per completare il quadro storico e produttivo, allargando lo sguardo alle denominazioni escluse dal viaggio, ci supporta invece Giorgio Fogliani, che ha da qualche mese pubblicato il suo ultimo lavoro di approfondimento, incentrato proprio sui vini del comprensorio: “Nord Piemonte. Tra Gattinara e Carema”, edito dalla Possibilia di Samuel Cogliati.Si compone così il consueto diario di bordo, pieno di nomi e indirizzi, vecchi e nuovi, che potranno tornare utili per perlustrazioni, visite, bevute e soste in zona. Senza dimenticare le fondamentali indicazioni gastronomiche che arrivano dalla nuova indagine dell'Ispettore Palma sulla cucina piemontese, per non parlare dei consigli di abbinamento rivelati in esclusiva per il nostro podcast dall'ultimo possessore dei vini scomparsi citati da Soldati: Umberto Emanuele Nebbiolone da Borgosesia.Tutti pronti per partire con la nostra carovana di amici e bottiglie, insomma: in marcia e buon divertimento!TIPICAMENTE PRESENTAVino al vino 50 anni dopoUn podcast di Paolo De Cristofaro e Antonio Boco Seconda serie, terza puntataNelle province di Torino, Vercelli, Aosta.

I det här något virriga (som ni kommer höra i klippningen) och något abrupt avslutade avsnittet (förklaring på slutet) pratar vi allmänt om den Italienska vinregionen Piemonte och resan dit, samt vinområden, och ja...jag (som språkpolis) hatar Tobbe mer än någonsin för att han uttalar Schweiz på rätt sätt, och inte jag...av någon anledning. Vi provar vin från Gattinara och Ghemme. Mycket nöje!

The great grape of Piedmont has a lot in common with the great grape of Burgundy, but it may be even more selective about site and growing conditions. In this show, we tell you what to look for in a great Nebbiolo, plus places outside of Piedmont doing a good job with this finicky grape! Here are more detailed show notes: Nebbiolo Overview Parents of Nebbiolo likely are extinct 1268 earliest mention – called Nibiol 13th, 14thcenturies – one of the oldest, most widespread grapes in Piedmont In the 15th century, the penalties for chopping a Nebbiolo vine were stiff! Name – from nebbia or “fog” – thick bloom covering ripe berries, like they are covered in fog. Could also be b/c fog covers piedmont hills Four clone types: Nebbiolo Lampia – most widespread, more highly valued for the quality Nebbiolo Michet –virused form of Lampia Nebbiolo Bolla – declining because it’s too productive and dilute in flavor Nebbiolo Rosé – has evolved into a different grape, not a clone, but still blended in Nebbiolo in the Vineyard: Early budding, VERY late ripening, can’t plant anywhere spring frosts are an issue Always given best hillside sites -- south and southwest facing Fussy about soil – really thrives only on calcareous marl north and south of the town of Alba, and on the right bank of Tanaro Not adaptable, doesn’t travel well Best vintages experiencedry weather during September & October Nebbiolo warmth to develop get sugar/alcohol and fruit flavors to balance high acidity and tannins Like Pinot Noir in ability to express terroir so differently – cru in Barbaresco/Barolo divided because it can pick up subtleties Wine Character and Flavors: Light color, turns orange very fast High in acid and tannin PERFUMED!! Aromas – tar, dried cherries, licorice, violets, roses, decaying leaf, woodsmoke, earthy Oak effect on Nebbiolo Small French oak barriques v. traditional large Slovenian oak casks, orbotti Small barrels = faster-maturing wines with less character. Most producers today use a mixture of the two, depending on the particular vintage, vineyard Blending Can be used to add color and/or soften the grape's harsh tannins. Common blenders: Barbera, Bonarda, Croatina, in Roero: Arneis DOCG regulations for Barolo and Barbaresco call for the wine to be a 100% Nebbiolo. Where is Nebbiolo Grown: Piemonte: Grows 3/4 of all Nebbiolo Outside of Barolo and Barbaresco: Gattinara, Ghemme, Roero: 75-95% of Nebbiolo in Ghemme and Gattinara. Blended with Vespolina, Croatina, and Bonarda Other Piedmont DOCs to look for: Carema, Langhe Nebbiolo, Nebbiolo d’Alba – at least 85% Nebbiolo, often 100% Lombardia – Nebbiolo called Chiavennasca Doesn’t ripen well often so the tannin and acidity are too high in these wines – Valtellina/ Valtellina Superiore Lower part of Valle d’Aosta (a different province) – subalpine and in poor years there is harsh acidity and tannins Outside Italy: Languedoc, France: Mas de Daumas Gassac, some in their top red blend Switzerland: 2 producers use it United States: California – 150 acres/61 ha in Paso Robles, Santa Cruz Mtns, Sierra Foothills, Amador, Moneterey, Santa Ynez, Santa Barbara. Thus far, producers have had a hard time finding the right sites for Nebbiolo Other U.S.: Washington State (Yakima), OR, VA, PA, TN, NM, in Canada – BC, Mexico Argentina: Mainly in San Juan, Mendoza Some in Chile, South Africa, New Zealand, growing in popularity in Australia And thanks to this week's sponsors!
