Grotta Rossa

CLASSIFICATION: Carignano del Sulcis DOC.

PLACE OF ORIGIN: Exclusively carignano grapes from bush-growth and counter-espalier vineyards in the lower Sulcis area.

SOIL COMPOSITION: Medium mixture, tending to loose, with clay, sand and limestone composition.

GRAPE VARIETIES: Carignano 100%.

CLIMATE: Hot and dry summers, mild winters.

HARVESTING: In regular years, the harvesting of carignano grapes starts in the second half of September and ends in the first half of October.

VINICATION AND DEVELOPMENT: The must ferments in the skin at a temperature of 25 to 30 °C. It is regularly pumped up to favour the transfer to the must of the compounds present in the pomace. Malolactic fermentation imparts a distinctive mellowness to this wine, which is then matured for several months in cement vats before bottling.

TASTING NOTES: Colour: Intense ruby red. Nose: Intense fruity scent with a final note of liquorice. Palate: An elegant wine, with good body in the mouth.

STORAGE: Constant temperature 17 °C, humidity 75-80%, away from light, horizontal bottle.

SERVING: Medium-large goblet with medium rim, serving temperature 16-18 °C.

MATCHINGS: Best matched with rich first courses and tasty second courses based on meat, light game and noble poultry.
