Proposta Vini and Agenzia Enotria have given life to an event that took place in the evocative setting of the New Villa dei Cesari.
An interesting philosophy, that of Proposed Wines, which for almost thirty years has distributed, among others, the “Extreme Wines” and the “Wines of the Small Islands“. A particular attention therefore, to the small realities and to those who practice a “difficult” viticulture, given the orographic and/or climatic characteristics of their terroirs. Productions often limited in numbers, but certainly not in quality, as any winelover certainly already knows. Sometimes, real masterpieces that arise from the tenacity and fatigue of man. Wines not intended for mass production, but clearly identifiable in their uniqueness and representation of their territory, born from vines that maybe grow only in those places and not elsewhere.
An event not to be missed then, last October 7th, at the “New Villa of the Caesars” with a large influx of public, as well as the presence of companies was remarkable, with hundreds of labels present, including some with interesting proposals for distillates (for example the wide selection of “Italian Spirits” grappas presented by Antonella Bocchino, or the Figaro liqueur of Distillerie Aragonesi) together with some food companies.
As always, we had to perform random tastings, often guided by chance or by personal sympathy and interest towards a vine or a particular place. However, unlike the usual, the evaluation of the wines reported will be expressed with a score from 3 to 5, to try to make the evaluation itself more immediately identifiable. We do not take into consideration (assuming that it should happen) a valuation of less than 3 that we consider necessary to be reported in a magazine that deals with excellence. Anyway, we would like to emphasize that ours are always personal judgments and expressed with the viewpoint of enthusiasts.
