Valpolicella Superiore DOC Roccolo Grassi

Tax included
Valpolicella Superiore Roccolo Grassi is obtained from about 60% of fresh grapes and 40% of grapes slightly dried for 20 days (the quantity of dried grapes and the number of days vary from year to year; this slight dehydration of the grapes allows to change the skin / pulp ratio and therefore to keep a very fresh fruit, but a little more concentrated and rich in noble components present in the skins); This is followed by 20 months of aging in wood, blending and bottling. This wine is produced in a part of the vineyard designed to produce only Valpolicella, in which the grapes for Amarone are not selected; this allows for more concentration, great complexity and aromatic finesse.

Wine with a deep ruby red color; on the nose there are spicy notes, tobacco and white pepper, mineral notes, graphite, coffee, cherry and small red fruits. In the mouth it is fat, full-bodied, soft; it has a sweet tannin, but of great depth. It is a very fine and complex wine, an ambitious Valpolicella, of great character and personality, in which the refinement in the bottle will improve these characteristics.
