Casa Caterina

CASA CATERINA SAUVAGE 1989 – BOTTLE No. 001 – LIMITED EDITION OF ONLY 400 BOTTLES For sale: rare vintage Casa Caterina Sauvage, from Monticelli Brusati (BS), with 1989 vintage. A particularly interesting bottle both for collectors of fine and historic wines and for enthusiasts looking to taste a wine with an exceptional ageing history. Details * Producer: Casa Caterina * Wine: Sauvage * Grape variety: 100% Chardonnay * Vintage: 1989 * Bottling: 29/06/1990 * Disgorgement: 30/03/2009 * Bottle number: 001 * Format: 0.75 L * Production: only approximately 400 bottles Filling level: base of the neck The exceptionally long ageing process makes this bottle particularly noteworthy: the grapes from the 1989 vintage were bottled on 29 June 1990, and the wine remained in bottle until disgorgement on 30 March 2009, resulting in almost 19 years of ageing on the lees. Bottle No. 001, being the first numbered bottle, adds an additional element of rarity and collector interest, especially considering the extremely limited production of approximately 400 bottles. FOR COLLECTING, BUT ALSO FOR DRINKING This bottle is not offered solely as a collector’s item: it is also a historic wine intended to be opened and enjoyed, offering the opportunity to experience the evolution of a Chardonnay with a history spanning more than 35 years from the vintage. Storage: the bottle has always been stored with the utmost care and under the best possible conditions, in a suitable environment and away from adverse conditions.
