Terrevive "Stiolorosso" Rosso Frizzante
| Vintage: | 2020 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Gianluca's friend Gabriele Ronzoni owns a biodynamic farm called Casalpriore, located in Stiolo di San Martino in Reggio Emilia, situated south of Terrevive's home commune of Modena. Given access to Gabriele's vines, Gianluca decided to keep the production from Casalpriore separate from Terrevive, as the old vines (planted in 1960) in this zone's alluvial soils yield a wine of less aromatic finesse but greater body and power than that of Modena. "Stiolorosso" is 100% Sorbara for which Gianluca employs a traditional local style of vinification: three days of grape maceration, and that's it. This keeps the wine lively and prevents over-extraction, though plenty of deep color is produced. "Stiolorosso" offers a typically expressive. nose of earthy black cherries, a subtle salty funk, and its palate is both juicy and tense, with those cherry flavors echoing. This 2020 is elegant on entry, with well-measured earth on the palate and a caressing sense of acidity. |
