DominiVenetiAppassimento750ml

<p>Tasting Note</p><p>Appassimento is made from indigenous red grape varieties. Following a thorough and rigorous blending process, both the appassimento and traditional methods are fused together in the production of this fine red wine.</p><p>Colour: ruby red with garnet hints.</p><p>Perfume: spiced with notes of vanilla and cherry.</p><p>Flavour: full bodied and round with soft tannins and a long finish with spiced notes.</p><p>The 2019 harvest began about ten days later than in previous years and with volumes reduced by 15-20% compared to 2018. After years of great heat in the final ripening phase, in which the sugar accumulation was privileged over the aromatic one, we finally had a year in which the low temperatures, combined with day/night excursions, allowed an excellent accumulation of coloring substances and a good acidity. Despite the heavy rains of May, the grapes were healthy and loose,therefore particularly suitable for appassimento. The wines denote more territorial expressions of greater longevity and freshness.</p><p>Food Pairing</p><p>A fine companion for meat dishes and aged cheeses. Serve at a temperature of 16° – 18° C. </p>
