About the Wine
Grape varieties are made up of 70-75% Corvina Veronese, 20% Rondinella, and 5% Rossignola e Negrara. Produced in the boroughs of Negrar, Marano di Valpolicella, Sant'Ambrogio, Fumane, San Pietro in Cariano (the historic area of Valpolicella Classico production). The maturation process, lasting three years with aging 12 months in large barrels (Slavonian oak) and 30% in small casks, barriques and ton- neaux (French oak), will take place. Prior to the release of the product, the wine is left to mature for at least 6-8 months in the bottles.
Tasting Notes
Typical aromas of ripe fruit, fruit preserve, and cherry are immediately perceived on the first olfactory examination. Particularly striking is the incredibly long length that lingers on the palate when the wine displays all its strength through a warm an elegant body.
Pairing Recommendation
The winemaker recommendations: it is an excellent partner to red meat, boiled meat, flavorsome risottos, and hard cheeses. Perfect also as a "conversation wine".
