2013 Cajo' Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG Double Magnum (3L)

Red wine made from dried grapes with fermentation in the patented Fermentino Ca'Botta® tank for a particularly powerful body.

Characteristics:
Dense and very concentrated wine with a very deep red, almost black color. The olfactory note begins with strong and incredibly long notes of blackberries and cherries, topped with green pepper, dark chocolate, thyme, rosemary, wild flowers, some honey herbs, and honey with a smoky finish. The taste is as dense and rich as the bouquet, with the bitter notes of almond liqueur on the finish. This is a perfectly balanced and unforgettable wine.

Technical details:
Made from a selection of the best grapes, strictly hand-picked and with careful quality control. The harvest lasts from the end of September to mid-October. The collected grapes are carefully placed in net boxes and dried with fresh air from outside, ventilated with high-altitude air from the mountains. 50% of the grapes are pressed in January. As a result, each bottle contains 4.4 kg of fresh grapes. Vinification: Maceration and fermentation take place in the stainless steel tanks Fermentino Ca'Botta® using a patented process. The maceration period is 10 days at a temperature below 8ºC, and fermentation is 30 days at a temperature below 20ºC. After fermentation, the wine is aged for 12 months in American oak barriques. Afterwards, the wine rests for 12 months in a stainless steel tank and another 12 months after bottling.
