About Piccoli Monte La Parte Amarone della Valpolicella
Piccoli Monte La Parte Amarone della Valpolicella reveals notes of ripe fruit such as black cherry, raspberry, and plum with hints of mint and eucalyptus. On the palate full-bodied, well structured with elegant tannins, fruity notes of red berries combined with licorices and tobacco. Dense, complex, and an ever-persistent after-taste.
Hand-harvested grapes from the Monte La Parte Cru of the estate. The soil is calcareous tuffeau. A rigorous selection identifies the best bunches and is stored in the fruttaio (drying room). The drying process is all-natural without the use of an air conditioning system, lasts longer than 3 months with a weight loss of up to 35%. After a cold maceration of 15 days, the slow fermentation lasting at least a month takes place in stainless steel thanks to controlled temperatures never exceeding 20°C. The soft remontage and delestage techniques allow the maximum extraction of polyphenolic compounds. The wine is refined in 30 hl French oak barrels for at least 5 years. After this, the wine is transferred to stainless steel tanks for an extra few months before bottling and spends an extra year in bottle before being released.
