The wine is made from Savagnin from vines over 50 years old, fermented with wild yeasts, and aged in egg-shaped cement tank or qvevris for nearly a year.

Jean-François Ganevat, Frédéric's friend from Jura, helped him find a source of high-quality grapes from Jura. Frédéric Cossard treated these healthy grapes in his manner, producing vivid wines. Red wines were made from whole bunches—a method rarely used in Jura, where grapes are usually de-stemmed—and he also experimented with skin contact for some white wines. The results were satisfactory, leading him to continue the 'Jura series' in subsequent years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/frederic_cossard_skin_contact_2023_banner_01_490x735_2cd8bc43-c110-4079-8805-1adb71c33989.jpg?v=1783592980\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vin et Saké Nature","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49363094470884,"sku":"F05VF0002BBJ2023","price":330.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/frederic_cossard_feel_good_skin_contact_2023_01_735x735_eb37b27c-ed78-4ab9-a334-93418ead0f05.jpg?v=1783593016"},{"product_id":"b409-frederic-cossard-vdf-zizifredo-skin-contact-2023-750ml","title":"[B409] FREDERIC COSSARD VdF ZIZIFREDO SKIN CONTACT 2023 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis wine is made from grapes grown in the Côtes du Rhône — a blend of Grenache Blanc and Muscat de Hambourg (Black Muscat).

While the standard 'Tardif' undergoes immediate pressing after harvest to ferment the juice alone, this 'Maceration Tardive' involves macerating the nearly 100% botrytized grapes with their skins and seeds inside the oak vats. We have never heard of any other wine quite like this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuksinis Tardif\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuksinis Tardif (Tardif meaning late harvest) boasts a high ratio of botrytized grapes among the Auksinis series created by Sébastien Riffault. It is a special wine that focuses on 'extreme late harvest and noble rot,' making it different from the regular Auksinis or its maceration versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the regular Auksinis, the proportion of botrytized grapes is about 50%, but this Tardif is made with almost 100% (about 90–100% depending on the vintage). The harvest is delayed by an additional three to four weeks, leaving the grapes in the vineyard until early November and waiting until they are completely botrytized. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe yield is a mere 5 hl\/ha. To put this in perspective, Château d'Yquem in Sauternes yields around 10 hl\/ha and Romanée-Conti around 25 hl\/ha, which perfectly illustrates just how crazy this figure is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile such wines are famous as 'Sélection de Grains Nobles' in the Alsace region—which are very sweet dessert wines—Sébastien Riffault's Tardif aims for a dry wine by completely fermenting the massive amount of sugar using native yeasts.

Reflecting the infamously hot and dry 2003 vintage, it delivers an extraordinary level of power, multi-layered depth, and dense concentration. This heat is perfectly balanced by a deep, savory minerality and incredibly refined tannins, a testament to the centenarian vines and the unprecedented 13-year aging process. It stands as a monumental masterpiece, presenting a flavor profile completely distinct from his standard bottlings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vinetsake.wordpress.com\/category\/wine\/gravner\/\" title=\"Josko GRAVNER Oslavia\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u0026gt;Read more stories at the News Archive\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/gravner_top_banner_06_490x735_9c148bec-ad26-4720-9db1-7d70fc9b06d4.jpg?v=1785663035\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vin et Saké Nature","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49560702386404,"sku":"I08AC0076FBK2003","price":2400.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/gravner_ribolla_runk_2003_mg_01_735x735_8ea896ff-3205-4c99-b65a-b9d5279f533a.jpg?v=1785666200"},{"product_id":"6558-gravner-massimo-lunardon-coppa-600ml","title":"[6558] GRAVNER + MASSIMO LUNARDON COPPA 600ml","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/gravner_glass_05_735x735_2c1b2781-8852-4082-9f27-60937dc7c8f1.jpg?v=1785667126\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"The idea to create a wine glass in the shape of a cup occurred to me in the year 2000 during my visit to the Caucasus. While traveling in Georgia, seeking amphorae to bury in my wine cellar, I happened upon a monastery in the hills of Tbilisi. The monks welcomed me with polyphonic praise of wine, which they then offered me in a simple clay cup. Savoring wine from a cup was a completely different experience. I now feel that it is more intimate, simpler, humbler, and more respectful of the wine than drinking from a stemmed glass.\"— Joško Gravner, November 2011\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne day, Josko Gravner was deeply impressed by the glassware designed by Massimo Lunardon at a restaurant, prompting him to immediately visit Massimo’s atelier.

Only 1,200 pieces are available by reservation.1997–2017. Twenty years after his first macerated wines, Gravner launches the XX G, a limited-edition package accompanying the release of the 2017 Ribolla, bottled exclusively in magnum format. Produced in a limited run of 1,200 numbered pieces, the box is designed as a collector's item: it combines oak and plexiglass in a minimalist, rigorous design, built to hold two magnums and six blown-glass bowls (or twelve bowls only) created for Gravner by master glassmaker Massimo Lunardon. The label and box graphics were designed by Ettore Concetti Graphic Opera, while the boxes themselves were produced by two Friulian artisans, Cresj Style and Prefor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e[Presentation by Gravner]\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2017, twenty years after our first experiments in 1997, we are faced with a particularly challenging vintage. A very hot August, followed a rainy September and October, causes the grapes in the vineyard to rot before they can fully ripen. Through hard work, we manage to save about 15 percent of production - largely thanks to the help of noble rot, which protects and enriches the remaining healthy berries. Careful, grape-by-grape selection yields a highly concentrated and characterful wine - a Ribolla distinctly different from its predecessors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe resulting 2,904 magnums, the exclusive format for this vintage, are presented in a special oak box.
