Description
Montigoli Appassimento Rosso IGT Veneto
A blend of Corvina, Rondinella. This bottle of Montigoli presents a bottle of ruby red with garnet hints. This bottle surprised us a bit, lil sweet on the nose with notes of vanilla and cherry. Sweet on the palate, medium-bodied with round & soft tannins and a long finish on the palate with spiced notes. Definitely an easy drinking bottle of wine.
Harvest was done in the second half of September exclusively by hand. The grapes are left to dry for 60 days, to obtain a higher concentration. Destemmed and gentle pneumatic pressed. Fermentation temperature 25 °C. Maceration for 10 days with scheduled punching 3 times a day for 20 minutes. Malolactic fermentation completed. Aging in wood.
Following a thorough and rigorous blending process, both the appassimento and traditional methods are fused together in the production of this fine red wine. Made from Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and international grapes.
Located mainly in the Veronese area at an altitude of between 100 and 350 meters above sea level. Soil type varies from calcareous to clay. Tillage in the row. Age of vines in production: from 20 to 25 years.
