Veneto IGT Amabile del Cerè 2017 Giuseppe Quintarelli

The Amabile del Cerè passito wine by Giuseppe Quintarelli is a sweet Venetian wine made from Garganega, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Trebbiano grapes. The grapes come from vineyards located in Cerè di Negrar, in the province of Verona.

The bunches are placed on racks for drying. At the end of January they are pressed and vinified with indigenous yeasts, with a fermentation that lasts approx. 50 days. This is followed by refinement in French oak barrels for 5-6 years.

Amber in color with golden reflections, the wine reveals a multifaceted nose with aromas of candied fruit, hazelnut, spices, caramel and vanilla. The sip is sweet, enveloping, well balanced with acidity and with a very persistent finish.

This wine pairs well with desserts and blue cheeses.
