Valpolicella Superiore DOC I Saltari 2019 Sartori di Verona

Valpolicella Superiore I Saltari originates from the small Turano vineyard, located at an altitude of 150-200 meters on the Veronese hills, with plants of an average age of about 50 years.

The harvest is special and takes place in three phases: the grapes are harvested at an increasing degree of ripeness, from ripe to overripe. The vinification takes place separately and proceeds with a maturation in separate containers, barrels of various sizes and barriques for 12–18 months. After assembly, there is a final ageing in bottle for 6 months.

Intense ruby red in color, it has a broad scent of black currant, cinnamon, cloves and licorice which alternate with each other on the nose. On the palate, it stands out for consistency and persistence, characterized by good tannin and good minerality.

It goes perfectly with important game dishes, roasts, grilled meats.
