VALPOLICELLA, ITALY

A note from the winemaker: The grapes are harvested by hand, directly in the vineyard during the month of September, and placed directly into small plateuax of plastic, on single layer, until December/January. This process is called “Appassimento.” Dense, ripe and lush berries with a hint of dark chocolate. This is a wine of power and elegance, harmonic and enticing. The finish is long and satisfying.

Food Pairings: Wild game birds, risotto all’Amarone, gorgonzola cheese, dark chocolate desserts, or cheesecakes.
