For lovers of sweet and elegant wines, this Vernus is an irresistible temptation. Recioto di Soave DOCG, born from a blend of the two typical grapes of the area: 90% Garganega and 10% Trebbiano di Soave. The vineyards are located in the hilly area north-east of Verona, composed of calcareous and alluvial soils. Here the grapes reach full ripeness and are harvested by hand and then sent to special drying lofts where they remain until January or February. Soft pressing and a light maceration of the skins are the preliminary operations that allow the must to begin its slow fermentation at a controlled temperature. Initially this takes place in steel tanks, and is then completed in small oak barrels. Finally, refinement continues in wood for about another 12 months, in contact with its own yeasts and with periodic "batonage" operations. In the glass, the wine has a beautiful golden yellow colour. The nose reveals a complex bouquet of honey, vanilla and dried fruit. In the mouth it is pleasantly smooth and appropriately sweet, with a bitterish aftertaste that brings to mind almonds. It is the perfect companion at the end of every meal. Excellent with simple traditional desserts, it should be tried with a slice of apple pie.
In 2018, the Sartori winery turned 120 years old. This fact is probably enough to understand that it is one of the most incredible realities of the Veronese territory. The story of Sartori began in 1898 when Pietro bought his first vineyard in Negrar, in the heart of Valpolicella. An "eccentric personality, but magmatic from a business point of view", as Pietro Sartori is described by his heirs, he was one of the most appreciated "restaurateurs" in the area. In fact, the Sartori trattoria was an essential address for merchants, businessmen and small industrialists in the area, to whom Pietro never failed to offer an excellent Veronese Rosso wine, as it was called at the time. Hence, first the decision to expand his business as a wine merchant, and then the decision to start producing on his own, so that good wine would never be missing from the tables of his loyal customers. Today, Sartori is a successful company with an international vocation, achieving over 80% of its turnover in more than 50 countries, in Europe, North and South America, Russia and South East Asia. In its range, proudly, the great Veronese classics: Valpolicella, Soave, Bardolino, Bardolino Chiaretto, always reinterpreted in an elegant and personalised way.
