Saldo is a wine that embodies our winemaking philosophy of joining and welding together grapes from the finest vineyards around the world. The name “Saldo” is derived from the Italian word for “I join or I weld,” which perfectly encapsulates our approach to crafting this wine.
When it comes to winemaking, we believe in seeking out the best vineyards, regardless of their location. We look for vineyards that have exceptional terroir, climate, and soil, as these factors greatly influence the quality and character of the grapes. By sourcing grapes from different regions, we are able to create a wine that showcases the best of each vineyard's unique qualities.
The process of welding together the grapes from these different vineyards is an art in itself. It requires a deep understanding of each vineyard's characteristics and how they can complement and enhance one another. It's like piecing together a puzzle, where each grape contributes its own distinct flavors and aromas to create a harmonious and balanced wine.
Saldo is not just a blend of grapes; it is a blend of stories, experiences, and cultures. Each vineyard tells its own tale, and when combined, they create a narrative that is expressed through the wine. It's like traveling the world through a single bottle, experiencing the diverse flavors and nuances that different regions have to offer.
As an expert sommelier and brewer, I have had the privilege of tasting and exploring wines from various vineyards and regions. I have witnessed firsthand how the combination of grapes from different vineyards can result in a wine that is greater than the sum of its parts. The art of blending is about finding the perfect balance and synergy between different grapes, creating a wine that is both complex and approachable.
Saldo represents our commitment to craftsmanship and the art of blending. It is a wine that celebrates the diversity of vineyards and the stories they have to tell. With each sip, you can taste the passion and expertise that went into welding together this unique and captivating wine.
