Curtefranca Monte della Rosa D.O.C. Castelveder

This wine is so-named because the grapes used in its production come from the vineyards surrounding the Sanctuary of the "Madonna della Rosa"
The clusters are picked into shallow boxes, then gently de-stemmed. The must is fermented in steel with ambient yeasts, then the wine is drawn off. A portion then matures in small oak barrels, while the rest is transferred to glass-lined cement vats, where it matures for 12-15 months. Only after this stage is the final blend assembled.

Colour:
Medium-dense ruby red.

Bouquet:
The nose releases generous fragrances of cherry, blueberry, and other berries, appealingly complemented by typical Cabernet spiciness and smooth, toasty nuances from the cask-ageing.

Palate:
Notable dynamism and velvety smooth, vanilla-edged mouthfeel.

Serving suggestions:
especially recommended with first courses and second meat courses.

Grapes: 45% Merlot, 45% cabernet, 5% Barbera, 5% Nebbiolo.

Alcohol: 13 - 13.5
