Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso Superiore – Valpanera – 2021

Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso Superiore Wine from Valpanera Winery

The Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso Superiore wine from Valpanera Winery comes from 100% Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso grapes, grown in the clay-rich vineyards of Scodovacca and Villa Vicentina.

This wine is intense and lively, ageing gracefully in wood. It truly shines after 2 to 3 years and can be stored in the cellar for up to 10 years.

THE WINEMAKING

The grape harvest is done manually in the first weeks of September, with only selected bunches brought to the cellar for winemaking. The must ages in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine rests for twelve months in French and American oak barriques. After blending and bottling, it matures in the cellar for an additional six months before being released to the market.

Tasting the wine of the winery

The wine has an intense and lively red colour. On the nose, it presents pleasant fruity aromas of blackberry and raspberry, complemented by notes of strawberry jam. These fruit notes blend seamlessly with hints of toasted oak and spices from the wood ageing. On the palate, it is persistent, with perfect harmony between its aromas and flavours. The finish is long and pleasantly lingering.

FOOD PAIRINGS

Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso Superiore pairs wonderfully with red meats and mature cheeses. It also complements cured meats beautifully.
