vine variety: 10% Corvina gentile, 60% Corvina Grossa, 20% Rondinella, 10% Teroldego and other varieties.
Harvesting, vinification and ageing: The grapes are harvested between the first and second decade of September and the first decade of October. Part of the grapes are collected in boxes and then placed on plateaux in well-ventilated rooms, where they are partially dried for approx. 40 days. A second part is left hanging on the vines until it reaches super-ripeness, to be harvested, during the first ten days of October, and then pressed. After fermentation the wines obtained are aged separately in small oak barrels for about 30 months and lastly blended and bottled.
Notes on Tasting: Ruby red colour with a hint of violet, the bouquet recalls small woodland fruits, cherries, perennial herbs with a hint of spices. A soft, round palate and a complex, persistent taste.
