Cantina Loda, MATINEL, Garda DOC, organic wine, red, from €9.60
 

Producing good organic wine can be so easy if all the requirements are met are available for this. That is the soil, the climate, the weather, the grape variety and its age, and finally the winemaker, who can interpret the interplay of these factors in the vineyard and in the cellar and react to them sensitively. With the Cantina Loda, Matinel Garda DOC, the brothers Umberto and Egidio Loda succeeded very well. By the way, Matinal is the name of the vineyard where the Merlot grapes for this wine were harvested.

Organic wine - preparation, Cantina Loda, MATINEL, Garda DOC, organic wine, red

More than 40-year-old vines, whose roots have dug many meters deep into the ground, can still find sufficient water there, in which minerals accumulate, even after months of drought dissolved and absorbed by the roots of the vines. For this reason, wines made from such grapes tend to be more complex than those from younger vines.

On the Loda family's winery, all the grapes are picked gently by hand to avoid damage and oxidation before the winemaking process begins . Because this would cause the wines produced from them to lose their fruitiness, but also their natural aging ability. After the grapes arrive at the winery, the berries are run off the panicles and lightly squeezed so that part of their juice can run out in the mash tun and macerate. The subsequent fermentation in stainless steel tanks starts spontaneously with the natural yeasts present on the berries. It lasts about 20 days at a controlled temperature. The wine is then filled into another tank separately from the pomace, the pomace (berry skins and seeds) is lightly pressed in order to extract the wine that is still in it, but above all the colors and flavors in the skins. During a stay of several months in the stainless steel tank, the biological acid degradation takes place, during which the malic acid contained in the wine is converted into the more tolerable lactic acid.
