From our grapes Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella bio hand-picked only from the oldest vines of the Vallalta district. The dried grapes have a very slow fermentation on native yeasts. Produced according to the traditional method and in limited quantities.

The Climatic characteristics of the year

That of 2014 will be remembered as one of the wettest summers in history with lightning, storms and tornadoes: out-of-control climatic phenomena and, above all, out of season that from the agricultural point of view have compromised many sectors including the wine sector and in particular that of Valpolicella. Only a careful selection of the grapes and a continuous control of the same during the withering phase have allowed to produce quality wines also in this vintage.

Tasting notes

Intense ruby red wine with hints of dried red fruit. On the palate full and round flavor, with hints of cherry and plum and slightly spicy aromas, a great complexity well balanced between acidity, alcohol and sweetness.

Gastronomy

Vallalta goes well with all desserts in general; in particular with dry biscuits, shortbread and simple desserts of the Venetian tradition. Serve at 16 ° C.
