Some Comments from Italian Winemakers: Proprietor Michael Count Goëss-Enzenberg at Tenuta Manicor said: “The advantage we see in our Slovenian oak Casks is, besides the harmony with our wines, that it is very subtle on our fruit, and on the aromas and the minerality our wines show. It just respects the character of our wines more.” Optimizing the use of oak for micro-oxygenation properties rather than oak characters continues to be important where fruit, rather than ‘boisée’ characters are sought. Giuseppe. Mazzocolin of Felsina, said “We place great importance on employing barrels that have been used in preceding years, since the wine that has been in them has lent them certain characteristics that reflect the Felsina terroir. |
