Fira Rosa Sartori di Verona

Sweetness: Dry

Grapes: Corvina

Grape info: The most important grape variety used in the blends of Valpolicella, Bardolino and Amarone, Corvina produces wines naturally low in tannins with a prominent acidity and a signature sour cherry note. It is also capable of producing delicate, floral rosés with a refreshing acidity.

About: Since the purchase of their first vineyard in Valpolicella in 1898, Sartori have dedicated themselves to the production of some of Verona’s foremost DOCs.

Picked when perfectly ripe, the must is then left to macerate on the skins at cold temperature for a few hours, to gently extract the colour and aromas. The must is then aged exclusively in steel tanks.

Tasting note: An enveloping bouquet of peony, orange blossom and nectarine that pairs beautifully with crisp notes of mandarin orange, mango and lemon grass. A silky, elegant sip with a good degree of salinity and excellent smoothness.

Character: Nectarine, lemongrass, floral.
