About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are grown in Valpolicella at 200–250 metres above sea level.

Vinification

The grapes are selected and harvested during the second ten-day period of October, then sorted by hand into 15 kg crates. At the winery, they are crushed and fermented using traditional methods. Malolactic fermentation follows.

Ageing

The wine ages in barriques for 12 months, followed by at least six months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Pleasant and well structured.

Serving and pairing

Pairs with boiled meat, red-meat dishes and aged cheeses.
