HiteJinro Launches Italian Sparkling Wine 'Contadi Castaldi'

Premium Italian Traditional Sparkling Wine
'Roje·Beurwi Ducati Reise' Launched

HiteJinro announced on the 21st that it will launch two wines from the Italian sparkling wine producer winery ‘Contadi Castaldi’.

Last month, HiteJinro released two Contadi Castaldi wines: ‘Brut’ and ‘Saten’. The newly launched products are ‘Rose’ and ‘Brut Ducati Race’, completing a total lineup of four types.

Founded in the late 1980s, Contadi Castaldi is a winery representing ‘Franciacorta’, Italy’s premier sparkling wine region known for traditional methods. It is famous for aging its wines in natural underground cellars converted from a brick factory built in 1880.

The greatest feature of Contadi Castaldi wines is their high quality. To achieve this, the riddling process, which involves gradually turning the sparkling wine to remove sediment, is done manually without the aid of machines. Manual riddling allows direct inspection of the sediment’s condition and enables tailored work according to each wine’s state, helping the wine maintain excellent quality over a long period.

‘Contadi Castaldi Rose’ is a ros? sparkling wine characterized by its beautifully shimmering coral pink color and delicate bubbles that last long. It boasts vibrant aromas of wild strawberry, rose, apple, and tropical fruits.

‘Contadi Castaldi Brut Ducati Race’ is produced in collaboration with the Italian luxury motorcycle brand ‘Ducati Corse’. Contadi Castaldi is the official wine partner of Ducati Corse. In 2017, the two CEOs and Contadi Castaldi’s chief winemaker blended three varieties from 80 raw materials to create this wine. It offers scents of citrus, yuzu, pineapple, and pear.

The two Contadi Castaldi wines are available through Hyundai Department Store (Mokdong Branch, Cheonho Branch, Pangyo Branch, Sinchon Branch), Hyundai Premium Outlet Songdo Branch, and Shinsegae Department Store Main Branch.
