Roberto Gatti spent 20 years as cellarmaster and viticulturalist at Bellavista, one of the early pioneers of the Franciacorta region, before creating Ferghettina in 1990. A new winery and cellars, started in 2002, were completed in 2005 and sit in a magnificent location overlooking the beautiful Lake Iseo. Roberto is assisted by his daughter Laura, also an oenologist, shortly to be joined by his son Matteo. The Gatti's control production of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, using only half of the grapes available for their production of 300,000 bottles. Meticulous attention to detail, skillful blending and long bottle maturation give wines of great finesse and individuality. The 'Italy's answer to Champagne' tag is unavoidable but these wines are much more than that.

When it comes to English wine there’s a lot to shout about, not least the stunning sparkling wines from Henners. Based just 4 miles from the sea in Herstmonceux, East Sussex, the 10 acre vineyard was created in 2007 by ex-Formula One engineer, Lawrence Warr. Planted with traditional champagne varieties of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, the vines thrive in an idyllic microclimate created by the vineyard’s proximity of the sea, low altitude (only 24 masl) and steep sunny south facing slopes. All Henners wines are hand-crafted from start to finish; with separate fermenting of varietals and their vine clones to allow a broader range of wines for final blending, extended lees ageing for added complexity, and holding back of all bottles for at least 4 years prior to release to add depth and richness. Henners – exclusive English Sparkling Wines of the finest quality. Crafted with every attention to detail, they are a perfect accompaniment to any occasion.
Korde by Pinea 2020
Regular price £49.95 Sale price £45.00Visibly clean with aromas of raspberries, currants and black plums. And delicate citrus notes and subtle floral aromas. A full-bodied rosé wine. Its light red colour denotes brightness and subtle accents of yellow and orange highlights, achieved during the aged in oak.
KORDE is a unique rosé, made with 100% red grapes of the Tempranillo varietal, from a careful selection of clusters from our “La Encina” vineyards. These 40-year-old vines are planted at 3,050 feet above sea level in white sandy limestone soils, and a special bio-climate environment that gives KORDE grapes a super balance of acidity and flavour.
KORDE is fermented in ceramic eggs with extreme controls of temperature and careful maceration to maintain its rosé structure and minerality. It is then aged in French oak barrels from the famous tronçais and bertranges forests, made with staves of extra fine grain and medium toasting. The time of construction in barrel enriches our wine with delicate toast notes that, when combined with the freshness of the fruit, make Korde an expressive and elegant rosé of great depth.
