Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nA dark ruby-red color, with the fragrance of pepper, fruit marmalade (cherries, prunes) and spices, licorice and ginger. Great red wine obtained respecting tradition and territory. The first fermentation\r\ntakes place in autumn, after the harvest. At the beginning of spring it is then refermented (\u201cripassato\u201d) on the Amarone grape marc still soaked in wine. This process gives the wine greater structure, personality, aromas and color.\r\nBlend - 50% Corvina, 15%Corvinone, 20% Rondinella, 5% Molinara, 10% Oseleta\r\nFood Pairing - roasted meats and cheeses.\r\nAbout Farina\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOur wines are the result of 45 hectares of selected vineyards of Valpolicella Classica. Ten of which we own and 35 belonging to historic, trusted contributors, whom we\u2019ve always considered our absolute \u201caccomplices\u201d in the production of our wines. We are dedicated with respect and spasmodic attention to our vineyards, because we believe that the attention to details allows a higher quality and the exploitation of a wonderful grape which is the Corvina. We have two historic vineyards, real crus of Valpolicella: the vineyard Montefante (300m a.s.l.), with its tuffaceous, clayey and calcareous soil and the excellent hilly exposure, it is an ideal habitat for the Corvina destined to our reserve Amarone Montefante; the other cru is the vineyard Montecorna, located on Mount Masua, characterized by an extraordinary calcareous soil, ideal for the production of the grapes dedicated to our Valpolicella Ripasso Montecorna. |
