In the Vineyard:
The Monte Solane vineyard is located 650 metres above sea level in a south-easterly direction with a compact, skeletal soil.
Winemaking :
The grapes are gently pressed on the day of the harvest to produce a fragrant and fresh wine. In March, it is fermented a second time with the pomace of the Amarone (the ‘ripassato’ process), which gives it more flavour and structure. The aging process lasts 20 months and takes place in small French Oak barrels.
Varietal:
Corvina 100%
Tasting Notes:
A dark and brilliant ruby red colour with an intense aroma reminiscent of ripe red fruits, black pepper, tobacco and cocoa, with a pleasant note of balsamic vinegar and just a hint of Mediterranean herbs. A warm and well-balanced palate with a clean and dry finish.
Alcohol by volume: 15%
