Quatro Passi Appassimento IGT Red Wine 75cl

Vintage 2022
This Multi Award Winning wine from Villa degli Olmi is made in the style of Amarone but from grapes outside of the official jurisdiction. Corvina & Rondinella are the dominate varieties, however, the blend also consists of Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot. Using the Appassimento method which consists of drying the grapes to concentrate the aromas, the wine is dark red in colour with a silky, unctuous texture and a pleasant aroma. This wine is soft with a lovely roundness and balanced persistence – Just sensational !
Appassimento is the process of natural partial dehydration of grapes to produce a greater concentration of colours, aromas and flavours in the wine. Since partially dried grapes also have a higher concentration of sugars, this system is often used to make sweet or very concentrated wines. In the Veneto, where the technique dates back to the times of the Ancient Romans, grape drying is also regularly used for the production of dry wines, leaving them full-bodied, complex and relatively high in alcohol.

This wine is smooth, pleasantly spicy, and has a full-bodied structure with a long-lasting finish. The grapes are air-dried for 90 sun-drenched days before the bottling process takes place. Quattro Passi has a deep red colour with intense fruity notes. This wine is soft, pleasantly spicy, and associated with a lovely roundness and a balanced persistence. Perfect with red meats, duck, aged cheeses, and spicy dishes.
