This elegant blend of \u003cstrong\u003eCorvina Veronese\u003c\/strong\u003e, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes reveals a fragrant nose of cherry and wild berries, enhanced by a distinctive hint of \u003cstrong\u003ewhite pepper\u003c\/strong\u003e. On the palate, it is light and graceful, supported by well-integrated tannins and a long-lasting finish. Fermented in steel and matured in concrete, this controlled designation of origin wine pairs beautifully with flavourful meat dishes and \u003cstrong\u003emedium-aged cheeses\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are grown in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica, within the Novare Estate in Arbizzano di Negrar. The \u003cstrong\u003eCru Le Miniere\u003c\/strong\u003e stretches across two south-west facing terraces, situated above ancient mining tunnels. The vines are trained using the double Guyot system on soils of Eocene limestone and red marl, enriched by a layer of \u003cstrong\u003ereddish clay\u003c\/strong\u003e. This unique geological formation profoundly influences the development of the grapes, giving the wine an unmistakable freshness and a \u003cstrong\u003emarked savouriness\u003c\/strong\u003e that define its elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe production process begins with a careful \u003cstrong\u003emanual selection\u003c\/strong\u003e of the best bunches. Fermentation takes place entirely in stainless steel to preserve the aromatic integrity of the varieties. Afterwards, the wine matures in \u003cstrong\u003econcrete vats\u003c\/strong\u003e for six to nine months, an essential step to soften the tannins and define its innate finesse. A further maturation in bottle for at least six months stabilises the flavour profile. In the glass, it displays a brilliant \u003cstrong\u003ebright ruby red\u003c\/strong\u003e hue, a prelude to a balanced, persistent and utterly elegant sip.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in the renowned Cru of \u003cstrong\u003eTenuta Novare\u003c\/strong\u003e, this elegant wine embodies the expertise of Bertani, a historic winery founded in 1857.
