Product description for Foradori Sgarzon Cilindrica Teroldego Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT 2018
Information
Teroldego from the Sgarzon vineyard (Trentino dialect for vine) in Campo Rotaliano near Mezzolombardo, grown on 2.5 hectares of alluvial floodplains about one kilometer from the Morei vineyard. There is a lot of sand in the topsoil; the plot is open and barely protected from cold winds. The grapes ripen about a week later than in the Morei vineyard. The wine was aged on the skins for eight months in tinajas, Spanish 420-liter cellar amphorae. In spring 2019, the wine was racked into concrete tanks, where it matured over the summer. One-third of the 2018 Sgarzon was then transferred to cilindricas, smaller, 330-liter cylindrical amphorae. There, the wine matured (without skins) for another year. It is, so to speak, the Riserva of amphorae wines.
Colour
dark, slightly transparent purple red
Nose
Of the brothers Morei and Sgarzon, the Sgarzon is always the somewhat lighter, wilder, and cooler wine, which is no surprise given that it comes from a cooler location. Compared to the “simple” Sgarzon, the Sgarzon Cilindrica has gained even more structure and has a more sinewy and cooler aroma. While the simply matured wine in the warm 2018 vintage seemed full and dark on the nose, here we find more delicate tones of mallow and sour cherries, sloes and red currants, a hint of burnt earth, tobacco, and dried herbs.
Palate
On the palate, this is an incredibly precise, almost ruler-like Teroldego, yet one that evokes emotion and affection. The Sgarzon Cilindrica is cool and juicy, yet also sinewy and incredibly fresh. The typical Tinaja texture is even finer here, comparable to the finest-grained sandpaper. It’s so fine, so elegant and full of subtlety, yet so compelling in its interplay of lively acidity, slightly tobacco spice, and acidic yet ripe fruit.
