Brigaldara Recioto della Valpolicella Classico 0.375L 2011
Recioto is produced only in the best years when the appassimento and natural fermentation procedures are able to reach a level of quality which is high enough to meet the standards which the tradition of this product requires. The various processes are carried out in the central phase of fermentation to ensure fermentation continues and to contribute to colour extraction. Fermentation stops naturally once the balance point between alcohol and residual sugar has been reached. The maturation in wood follows the tradition of the Valpolicella Classica area and is carried out in 25hl French oak barrels.

Colour

Ruby red almost transparent.

Bouquet

Sugary aromas of raspberry juice, violet lozenges, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Flavour

Sip subtly sweet and not very tannic, with good tempering fresh, not particularly fat, not opulent but lean enough structure to be a pleasant and not too demanding company.

Pairing

Cheese
Desserts
