DELLA VALPOLICELLA LIMITED EDITION LABYRINTH
SIZE 0,75 l.
ALCOHOL CONTENT 15% vol
VINIFICATION

The grapes are hand-picked in mid-September and laid out to dry in the drying loft for approximately three months, where the grapes lose around 25-30% of their weight with the resulting concentration of the substances present. After pressing, alcoholic fermentation in steel vats begins, for around 25-30 days at a controlled temperature and continuous punching down is carried out to encourage extraction of colour and tannin.

 

When finished, the wine is transferred to French oak barrels where the malolactic fermentation takes place that gives softness to the wine. After about 18-20 months of ageing, the wine is bottled and aged for a further four months.

TASTING NOTES

Deep red in colour, with a broad nose, fresh and decisive aroma of red fruits like blackberry and cherry, spicy tones reminiscent of chocolate, toast and sweet notes of vanilla. The palate is warm, balanced, with soft tannins and notes of appassimento on the finish.
