Production Details Fruit comes from Guyot-pruned, vertically trellised vineyards in the Valpantena hills north of Verona, planted at about 5,000 vines/ha. Only healthy, well-exposed bunches are selected and partially dried on traditional arelle for up to 150 days. Fermentation begins at 40 °F, rises to 65 °F and is stopped before all sugar becomes alcohol. The wine matures in 30-hL cherry-wood casks for about 12 months, followed by six months in bottle.
Tasting Notes Wild-berry jam and other forest-fruit aromas, with tobacco, chocolate and liquorice; plush and dense on the palate with a spicy, long finish.
