Sicilia - DONNAFUGATA  Qualcuno che identifico molto nei suoi vini, è una donna winemaker, ma crede anche in arte e vino, con profondi pensieri e attivismo femminista, per rendere più perfetto un vino semplicemente fantastico. José Rallo, responsabile del controllo di gestione e guida della comunicazione, donna-imprenditrice capace di mettersi in gioco presentando i suoi vini anche nella veste di cantante. Riceve il Premio Bellisario 2002 per il suo contributo alla valorizzazione dell’imprenditoria femminile. Il nome Donnafugata fa riferimento al romanzo di Tomasi di Lampedusa il Gattopardo. Un nome che significa “donna in fuga” e si riferisce alla storia di una regina che trovò rifugio in quella parte della Sicilia dove oggi si trovano i vigneti aziendali. Una vicenda che ha ispirato il logo aziendale: l’immagine della testa di donna con i capelli al vento che campeggia su ogni bottiglia. Mille e Una Notte - Nero d'Avola, Petit Verdot, Syrah e altre uve  Il palazzo illustrato sull’etichetta è quello dove si rifugiò la regina Maria Carolina in fuga da Napoli e fu la casa preferita dello scrittore Tomasi di Lampedusa a Santa Margherita Belice. Gabriella Anca Rallo – fondatrice di Donnafugata insieme al marito Giacomo – ne cattura l’immagine e la incastona in un cielo da “Mille e una Notte” pieno di stelle e ricco di promesse. Il carattere forte e passionale ha ispirato il mâitre chocolatier Ernst Knam nella creazione delle praline al “Mille e una Notte e peperoncino.

CHF70.00
Taittinger Champagne Nocturne Sec, 75 cl. Grape varieties: 40% Chardonnay and 60% Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Terroir: A blend of around thirty different vintages from several harvests. “Entrepreneurs” always have an impact on those around them - the best way to spot them at a party is to look for the whirlwind of people who circle around them when they move from group to group. Laughing and having fun with a frank and colorful humor, entrepreneurial personalities like to be the center of attention. If a member of the public is invited to go on stage, the entrepreneurs are busy cheering on the shy friend. Theories, abstract concepts and fervent discussions on global problems and their implications did not fascinate entrepreneurs for long. They like to talk about what is concrete and better yet, they like to go out and do it. They are men of action rather than thought. Entrepreneurs jump before looking, correcting their mistakes as they go, rather than sitting idly by, anticipating the unexpected and thinking of emergency exits. It should also be noted that there is little interest in responsibilities among the personalities of entrepreneurs. Champagne Nocturne is a champagne that invites you to party and enjoy the moment with uncomplicated tasting notes. Served at the right temperature in the evening or during a good Sunday brunch, it will always guarantee a beautiful harmony. The entrepreneur: (Extrovert, Detection, Thought, Perception).

CHF125.00
Champagne Duval-Leroy Precious Plot Petit Meslier Vintage 2005, 75 cl. 100% Petit Meslier Terroir: Marne Valley. No one likes the mental combat process more than the "Debater" personality type, as it gives them a chance to exercise their mind quickly, with ease, to draw on their large accumulated knowledge base and their ability to connect disparate ideas to prove their points. Debaters are the devil's ultimate defenders, thriving on the process of shredding arguments and beliefs and letting the ribbons drift in the wind so everyone can see them. However, they do not always do it because they are trying to achieve a goal or even a deeper strategic objective. Sometimes it's for the simple reason that it's fun. Le petit meslier is a little-known grape variety perfect for a personality who likes challenges. This champagne turns out to be a real challenge in the mouth with its strange notes but which please a lot: there is material to give your opinion to wine lovers. Tender and round with an exceptional flavor, it is a champagne to be discovered by your loved ones. The debater (Extroverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Perceiving).

A pinot noir rosé champagne, with a very different character from the norm, can be a good choice if you have a strong commanding personality. It is a wine that is round and firm on the palate with an atypical bitterness and a perfect elegant finish with a good, elaborate plate.

CHF86.00
Champagne Beaugrand Blanc de Blancs not dosed Millésime 2008, 75cl. 100% Chardonnay Terroir: Vielles Vignes, Montageaux The "Defender" or "defender" personality type is quite unique, as many of their qualities oppose the definition of their individual traits. Although sensitive, defenders or protectors have excellent analytical skills, although reserved, they have well developed human skills and solid social relations and although they are generally of a conservative type, defenders are often receptive to change and new ideas. The protectors are real altruists, especially with children, combining dedication with exceptional kindness; they start work and open up to people in whom they believe with enthusiasm and generosity. If you are the style of person who never forgets to tell others to take a jacket so as not to get cold in the winter then this champagne could perfectly suit you. It is an unmeasured champagne with a perfect touch of acidity with a simple and natural sweetness that will satisfy your demanding palate. You favor natural things, without retouching, but above all, you prefer to grant it with a moment of calm sitting alone in your favorite place if possible during a rather cool and peaceful day. Personality: The protector (introverted, smelling, smelling, judging). Know more about Hélène Beaugrand on my blog. Champagne Mary-Sessile- Rosé Saigné by Claire Bleen
CHF45.00
Champagne Mary-Sessile - Rosé de Saignée, 75 cl. 100% Pinot Meunier. Terroir: Reims mountain - Ardres valley Inventiveness and creativity are characteristic of the "logician" type. The logicians are proud of their unique point of view and their vigorous intellect. Type of personality frequent in the philosopher, the architect or the dreamer professor, the logicians are also at the origin of many scientific discoveries throughout history. "Life without exam is not worth living" Logicians are known for their brilliant theories and relentless logic - in fact, they are the sharpest type of personality. They like evidence and spotting contradictions between statements is almost a hobby, making it a bad idea to lie to a logician. However, the word of the logicians should not be taken at face value because this type of personality tends to share thoughts that are not fully developed, using others as a sounding board for ideas and theories in a debate against themselves rather than as real conversation partners. For this type of personality, I chose an unusual champagne, a bleeding rosé that encourages reflection on its production and its rarity. The strong and direct notes of Pinot Meunier are concentrated in your taste buds and thoughts and will make you dream during the tasting. Perfect accompaniment to make a puzzle or read a good book.
