Oseleta
Oseleta is considered a rare and unique grape variety that adds character and complexity to the wines of the Valpolicella region. It is known for its small berry size, thick skins, and high tannin content, which contribute to its intense flavors and rich, concentrated wines.
Varietal Origin: Oseleta is a red grape variety that is native to the Veneto region of Italy, specifically in the Valpolicella wine region. It is an ancient grape variety that was nearly extinct but has experienced a resurgence in recent years, thanks to its unique qualities and potential for producing high-quality wines.
Typical Taste Profile: Oseleta wines are known for their dark color, high tannins, and rich flavors. They typically exhibit flavors of black fruits such as black cherry, blackberry, and plum, along with hints of spices and dark chocolate. Oseleta wines are often described as full-bodied, robust, and powerful, with a firm structure and a long, lingering finish.
Regional Styles: Oseleta is primarily used as a blending grape in the production of Amarone della Valpolicella, a prestigious Italian red wine made from partially dried grapes. The more common grapes are Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara, but contributes to the wine's structure, color, and complexity. Oseleta is known for its ability to add depth and intensity to the final blend, and it is often used in small quantities to enhance the overall quality of the wine.
