About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
Produced from selected parcels in the Valpolicella vineyards.
Grapes
60% Corvina, 30% Rondinella and 10% Molinara. Molinara is retained for the fresh herbal character it contributes alongside the crisp red-fruit profile of Corvina and Rondinella.
Vinification
Fermentation lasts 12 days under temperature control at 25–30 °C.
Ageing
The wine matures for six months in stainless steel. Some vintages also spend a short period in large Slavonian oak casks.
Technical data
Alcohol: 12% vol. Bottle formats: 375 ml and 750 ml.
Tasting profile
Intense, transparent ruby red. Fragrant aromas evoke crisp cherries and other red fruits. The palate is fresh and balanced, with an agile structure, clearly defined fruit and a pleasantly persistent finish.
Serving and pairing
Serve at 14–16 °C. Its light, versatile style suits pasta and other first courses, white-meat dishes, fresh to medium-aged cheeses, and richly topped pizza.
Label / history
