Valpolicella 2011
To paint, it is vital to know the primary colours.
Therefore it is important to recognize the basic Valpolicella as the authentic expression of the land from whence it came.
The aromas are clearly distinguishable and deviate somewhat from those of the Valpolicella Classica for their known spicy features. It is rather costly to obtain a base product such as this, especially as not many bottles are produced.
I like to think the spontaneity of a unique product that expresses an identity will differ each year.
We recommend you enjoy it with your picnic.

The grapes are hand harvested and fermented immediately without having undergone any type of drying. During the fermentation cold maceration continues for 4 days, in which contact with the skin flavours the wine. The wine is aged for about 6 months in steel tanks on fine lees and is then bottled. The wine is very fruity and reflects the characteristics of the land from whence it came. The Valpolicella is the starting point for other wines, which are the result of our selection of grapes and drying processes designed to create these unique and complex products. |
