Valpolicella DOC, Marchesini di Monte Cillario, represents 'the basis of tradition'. A very typical Valpolicella, where it is easy to find all the fresh aromas of the territory. After all, safeguarding tradition is at the heart of the work of this fine Veronese company. Starting with the vineyard, where the traditional Veronese Pergola still coexists with the more modern Guyot. At Marchesini, all the basic grape varieties of the region coexist, with 55% Corvina, 30% Rondinella and 15% Molinara. The harvest, which is manual, allows for a good selection of the bunches. Thus only perfectly healthy ones are sent to vinification. At the end of vinification, the wine is aged in steel tanks for a period of 7/10 months. It is then bottled and left to rest again in the cellar for another 3 months, before being finally put on the market. To the eye it has a beautiful ruby red colour, typical for a fine young wine. The nose is pleasantly vinous and subtly almondy, with ripe cherry and rose tones. In the mouth, it is fresh and soft. Pleasantly tannic and lively. A fine wine to uncork, without remorse, right from the antipasto. An excellent companion for lunches and dinners, it goes well with first courses and fresh cheeses.
