Production Notes
After a brief drying period, the Corvina grapes were destemmed and crushed before undergoing a gentle maceration and slow fermentation in stainless-steel tanks at temperatures between 22-28°C. This wine saw no oak to emphasise its fresh, youthful characteristics.
Producer Information
Producer Information
Run by Luca Degani since 1995, the Cantina Valpantena is now one of Italy’s best cooperative wineries, with 700 hectares of vineyard producing excellent quality fruit. Matt Thomson of Blank Canvas, has worked closely with Luca at Cantina Valpantena since 1999.
Known as the ‘valley of god' to the ancient Greeks, the Valpantena is well known for its quality red wines, due partly to the limestone soils, but also because of the cool breeze that blows down the valley from the foothills of the Dolomites.
The Torre del Falasco wines are the standard bearers of this cooperative. The `Tesauro` Recioto della Valpolicella is elegant and well-structured displaying delicate aromas of blackberry jam and spicy hints.
