Once the alcoholic fermentation is completed the new wine is separated from the skins by light pressing and conserved in stainless steel barrels until january. At this point the valpolicella is passed over the marc of the amarone for a period of 7-8 days at a temperature of 25-28°c.

Bouquet: intense elegant and persistent with hints of black cherry and plum. Taste: harmonious and velvety with a good
