Story of Tazzelenghe Wine
About 200 years ago, vine plants in Europe suffered a disease called Phylloxera,
many plants died and people considered some precious type of red grape extinct
forever. About 60 years ago the great grandfather of the current Beltrame family,
once travelled to a monastery on the top of a high hill for pray, surprisingly, he
noticed a very old grape plant, growing on the wall of this remote church, that even
though he is a wine expert he cannot recognize.
Out of curiosity he cut a branch, brought it back tothe Beltrame wine yard, and
eventually grew it up.
Several years later, from that single plant grapes grown, and when the government
authority requested to wineries to register all the hosted plants still no expert
could recognize which kindof plant was that.
Therefore the plant was subjected to a DNA test.
Surprisingly they couldn’t find the DNA match in the existed plant database.
So after further test and research, it has been confirmed that the Beltrame featured grape
is the precious grape -Tazzelenghe, the type that people thought vanished centuries ago.
The Beltrame wine made out of Tazzelenghe has won several awards with its powerful and
special aroma as well as top quality and fine taste.
This fine wine undergoes many years of aging in our oak barriques and receives
special care as it is Beltrame most famous wine.
Tenuta Beltrame is with no doubt producing the best Tazzelenghe wine in the world.
Tazzelenghe wine is classical, unique in the world, limited edition, best
choice for high-ending investment and top collection.
Less than 3.000 bottles of Beltrame Tazzelenghe are available in the
world each year which makes it a more valuable investment.
The only other wine that uses Tazzelenghe grapes is the secret blend of our best
wines called “Selezione Speciale dei conti Beltrame†(Special Selection of the Count
Beltrame) we only produces less than 2.000 bottles of this wine and it is our true Masterpiece.
