Cantina Negrar RECIOTOdellaValpolicella Classico DOC
Description: Seven gentlemen, on august 23, 1933, set an appointment in the offices of Francesco Betteloni, notary public, to sign the deed giving birth to the Cantina Sociale Valpolicella. Today, the Cantina Valpolicella directs and coordinates the production of approximately 200 grape-growers with vineyards covering a total of 450 hectares. All these are located in the classic Valpolicella hillside zone. All have the same dedication and passion as the original founders. They work together and in their mutual interests to turn member producer's grapes into high quality wines, performing activities that improve winemaking and grape-growing knowledge and culture. The vineyards are situated on about 450 hectares in the classical Valpolicella Hills area Northwest of Verona, which are mostly concentrated in the town of Negrar. The most used system of cultivation is the traditional Pergola system, with about 2,500-3,000 plants per hectare, while the average age of the vines is 20 years. The cultivation of the vineyard has among its primary objectives the maximum possible degree of respect for nature: for this reason, biological techniques are used, and pesticides are used as little as possible. A blend of Corvina and Rondinella this wine is made from grapes located in the heart of the classic Valpolicella zone on the Negrar hills, between 200 and 350 metres above sea level, and is made up of terrains of various origins, from calcareous to loamy, from volcanic to alluvial. The harvest is done entirely by hand, with many selections for special wines, such as the Amarone, produced from single vineyards to exalt its characteristics. The selected grapes are dried and vinification takes place at the end of January. The fermentation progresses slowly, thanks to low winter temperatures, until it is blocked by light decanting and filtering, to maintain a discreet amount of sugars and obtain a sweet wine. Dark ruby red coloured wine with an intense bouquet of wild cherry fruit, spice, choccolate and a seemingly endless succession of nuances. The palate is an astonishing combination of unusual structure and sweetness with unexpected suppleness and drinkability. Available in 50cl bottles. (6 x 50 cl) Price: £81.05
