Characteristics

Qualification: Recioto di Soave DOCG

Grapes: Garganega

Alcohol: 13%

Size: 75 cl 

Vinification: this wine is produced only in favourable harvests. The grapes are harvested in small wooden boxes and only the best clusters are used for drying. The boxes are placed in the loft (fruttaio) where natural ventilation assists the drying process. Five-six months later the grapes are pressed following a further selection. No sulphites are added during the vinification process.

Ageing: for the fermentation the must is racked into 228 litre barriques and this process is very slow due to the high sugar content, this also stops the fermentation process at 13 percent of alcohol. Some 18 months later the wine is prepared and bottled where it is layed-down for at least 6 months.

Service temperature:  12-14°C
