Contrada Guardiola (Contrada G) is an ancient contrada that lies between 800m and 1000m above sea level, on the edge of a recent 1947 flow that stopped just short of the vineyards. The ancient vines produce a deep, complex wine with a rich hint of red fruits. Only selected grapes from the oldest vineyards are used for this cru, which they began producing in 2011.
The vines are all between 70 and 100 years old, and harvests take place in late October/early November. The wines are vinified in cciaio vats and then transferred to large oak barrels for 18 months, where malolactic fermentation occurs first and then aging. The minimalist intervention of the producer allows the wines to enhance the specificities of their respective terroirs. They began bottling Contrade each on its own in 2008, with a label change in 2009.
CONTRADA GUARDIOLA 2015
HOW WAS THE VINTAGE
Historic Contrada that stretches between 800 and 1000 m a.s.l. to the last casting in 1947. It produces intense wines that typically taste of marzipan, orange and red fruits. The property consists of a parcel of 80-year-old plants growing in the last lower part of the contrada, before the jump onto the underlying Contrada Santo Spirito.
This is a vintage of great vitality in the vines, fertilized by a rainy winter, followed by much heat during the summer. The long period of rain during early October weakened the peels, a malignant cloud hung around and dripped moisture for weeks. Dew shone on the clusters every morning. The rain brought mold and other problems, so to keep the grapes healthy they went back to the vineyards again after thinning to clean the grapes, bunch by bunch, grain by grain.
They could have waited longer for the high-altitude vines to push even more ripening due to the altitude, the cold, the sparser clusters, and lots of propolis to keep them healthy; in this district, we harvested our selection of old vines for this ‘bottling on Oct. 27, the last day of the harvest. The nerello wines are good, variety wines, mineral and salty. The vintage is not like 2012, nor 2014, however, it paints a complete and structured picture of Etna, with a good skeleton, high acidity, and low alcohol.
