ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Manual harvest and selection of the grapes, with subsequent drying for about 3 months in a well-ventilated loft. Fermentation in steel for 25 days. at a temperature of 25/30°. three years of aging in 35 hectolitre Slavonian oak barrels. The drying of the grapes is a unique method of Valpolicella Classica, which has always characterized the production of the great wines of this area such as Amarone, Ripasso and Recioto. Over the centuries this technique of drying the best grapes for a hundred days on the Arele, so called bamboo racks, has been preserved in a solid tradition, which has made this technique the productive excellence of Valpolicella. The Tommasi family preserves the authentic character of this method, keeping the uniqueness of the Appassimento intact. The La Groletta vineyard has always been a symbol of Valpolicella Classica. The excellent exposure of the vineyard enjoys the sun's rays and the constant breeze from Lake Garda. The microclimate is the result of an extraordinary combination of factors, unrepeatable in other areas of Valpolicella. These soils are ideal for the activation of typical aromatic precursors, where the strength of the fruit and the darker spices prevail. The Amarone de La Groletta stands out for its bold structure. It is structured, elegant and full-bodied, and is well suited to aging in the bottle.
