Veneto IGT I Capitelli 2022 Anselmi

I Capitelli is the passito of the Anselmi winery, coming from the municipalities of Monteforte d'Alpone and Soave, production centers of Soave appellation wines.

It is obtained from only ripe bunches of Garganega carefully chosen and attacked by the noble mould Botrytis Cinerea which concentrates the sugar component of the grapes. After drying, the grapes are softly pressed and fermented in small Allier oak barrels. This raisin wine ages for 8 months in the same casks and ages for one year in bottle.

It comes in a golden yellow glass tending to amber. The nose is characterized by a refined bouquet of dehydrated apricot and saffron, enriched with a note of orange zest and custard. Enveloping and sweet on the palate, it proceeds on tones of intensity and freshness.

It goes very well with foie gras and lobster. Also excellent with blue cheeses and dry pastries in general.
