W.... Dreams 2018 Venezia Giulia PGI (6L) Mathusalem
"...Dreams..." from Chardonnay grapes. It has a resplendent straw yellow colour. On the nose it expresses charm and complexity with aromas of rare elegance and refinement. Exotic hints of ripe fruit, melted butter, vanilla, pastries prevail. In the mouth it holds all the promises of the nose, confirming and embellishing them with gentle flavours and fresh, persistent aromatic nuances. (Duemilavini Guide 2003 A.I.S., Dreams 2000)
Dedicated to the rock album "The Joshua Tree" by U2 released in 1987 and in particular to the song "Where the streets have no Name". This wine was born with the 1987 vintage and over the years its name has undergone some variations. The first cycle of nine years with the name "Where the Dreams have no end...", had the peculiarity of changing the colour of the capsule each vintage referring to the seven colours of the iris plus white and black on the label, starting with white in a counter-clockwise direction. The four phases of the moon are also depicted. In 1996 it becomes 'Were Dreams, now it is just wine!' with the blue capsule on which the Hale-Bopp comet is stylised, this for another seven years. Finally in 2003 we return a little to the origin with: 'W.... Dreams ... ......', adding, below, the year of the harvest and drawing Mars on the capsule. The dots are interpreted by us as 'Where Dreams can happen' however everyone can have different inspirations.
The label of 'Where the Dreams have no end...' was used in the highly successful Walt Disney film 'The Parent Trap', a 1998 comedy directed by Nancy Meyers and starring Natasha Richardson, Dennis Quaid and Lindsay Lohan (twins).
