Description

A good glass of wine brings to mind Marco Polo, the explorer. This story sets the background for a soft, intense, and velvety red wine with aromas of ripe red fruits and intriguing hints of sweet spices. Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella grapes are crushed and destemmed. Maceration lasts for 10 days, with mixing three times daily. Fermentation takes place at 25–28 °C. The wine is then pumped over onto Amarone grape skins at 15 °C for 15 days, with daily mixing. Finally, it is transferred to barrels for about nine months. Full malolactic fermentation is completed.
