In the past, the sour cherry wine was produced to make vigorous and tannic wines more likable. Duke Federico of Montefeltro, according to his trustworthy biographer and bookseller Vespasiano of Bisticci, “almost did not drink wine if was not cherry or pomegranate”. Afterwards it was considered a woman’s wine, because of its scents, velvetiness and roundness. Today it is considered a wine for meditation, a wine to savor and taste with others, a wine to rediscover tastes of days gone by. It is called “visciolato” or more commonly sour cherry wine.

Colour

Ruby red with hues of amaranth.

Bouquet

Pleasantly intense as if it were a wine just made. Sensual and lingering floral and red fruit scents. Strawberry, raspberry, small wild berries along with nuances of peach and ripe pear.

Flavour

Refreshing yet remarkably smooth. Good structure in equilibrium with its richness in flavor and acidity. A fulfilling mouthfeel of flowers and small fresh wild berries such as blueberries and cherries. A wine to be paired with tea biscuits, a wine to be sipped at the end of a meal or even for meditating.

Vinification In order to produce our “vino e visciole”, we use an ancient variety of wild cherries (Prunus cerasus) which is dark red and has an aciduluous taste. The sour cherries are picked during the first weeks of July and put to macerate, partly whole and partly crushed, with sugar. This triggers a fermentation which slowly produces a smooth and scented syrup. This product is removed from the lees for some days and subsequently filtered. A highly sugar concentrated syrup is obtained and then mixed with wine (Lacrima) , triggering another fermentation which blends the two identities (wine and syrup). The fermentation is halted at approximately a 14% alcohol volume, with a sugar residue guaranteeing pleasure.
