Visit Us in Booth #604
Visit Defranceschi in booth #604 at WINExpo to get a look at the JP22 open drum wine press with an easy dump juice vat. No more bins or shovels required for getting rid of skins and seeds after pressing. Simply empty the press into the vat, pick it up with a forklift and pull the lever to dump. The vat resets itself when you lower it to the ground and it is ready to go again after a quick rinse. The Defranceschi booth will also feature examples of our unique design tanks and winery design projects.
Cellese has a working methodology which is totally different from any other winery, i.e: each customer owns four or five wine barriques which are located in their private tasting room.
Once a year their customers embark on a journey to Tuscany. They meet together with the producer Cellese in the tasting room and together with the enologist they make the wine “assemblage” by mixing wines in a glass, obtaining different results. They go on tasting these results until they reach a wine considered perfect both by the customer and the producer/enologist. After that, they choose the “assemblage” and the corresponding barrique number which contains it and decide the quantity of wine which will be produced in that same tasting room. In the case of a wine which has been assembled for a season when a particular event will take place (for example a son’s wedding, birthday etc), specific packaging and bottles will be designed and sent to the final destination. There could be seasons when a specific event won’t be involved, but a private label will be packaged instead.
Moreover, every customer owns a quota of their own wine produced in Italy.
This tasting room is open just for these partners/barriques owners and not for the public.
Designed by Defranceschi, 6 flacons positioned on a wooden support, (capacity 250lt) specific sepage/terroir ready to be “assembled” per glass are stored. In the 6 cylindrical tanks which are positioned on a metal structure, the “assembled wines” ready to be bottled are stored.
