Winemaker Notes
Critical Acclaim
All VintagesThe 2006 Antonini Izquierdo is a bit more reticent and structured. Intense, layered and complex, it too requires extended cellaring and should be at its peak from 2018-2040. This is the debut wine in this journal from Antonino Izquierdo. It appears to be a name worth remembering.
Biodynamic farming, which follows lunar cycles ,and skilled labor make up the foundation for the excellent quality grapes used to make our handcrafted wines. No weed killers, systemic products or chemical fertilizers are used in the process. Our vines, which are more than 40 years old are situated on plots of poor soil.
Antonino Izquierdo is a wine made in the vineyard, with minimal intervention. This is achieved through low-yield productions (three or four bunches per vine) and organic fertilizers of animal origin. Individual grapes are removed from the clusters before being transferred to the selection table via gravity flow, where six people perform an additional grape-by-grape selection. The fruit is then taken into temperature-controlled 15-ton-capacity stainless steel tanks for fermentation.
