Recioto di Soave Balestri Valda

Italy, Veneto

Monte Carniga/Monte Campagnola/Sengialta, Verona. 100% Garganega grape. Recioto sweet wine is derived from taking ripest possible grapes from the upper part of the bunch, drying them for 6 months before pressing in March. Then the slow process of cool fermentation in barriques followed by 6 months maturation in larger barrels with 3 more years maturing in the bottle. The resulting wine has a beautiful rich yellow/gold brightness in the glass with an intense, softly fruity aroma, sumptuous sweet juicy flavours etched with almond. Sip slowly and enjoy with hard Ewe's milk cheeses, or Foie Gras, as well as desserts.
