Prà Valpolicella DOC Morandina 2023

A red wine from the Prà estate in Valpolicella at Mezzane, where the vineyards are farmed organically. The vines sit at about 450 metres with south-east exposure, planted at over 7,000 vines per hectare with low yields of about 40 hl per hectare. After destemming, maceration and fermentation last 15 days in vertical vats, followed by malolactic fermentation in 20-hectolitre oak casks. It is a typical red wine of the Veronese tradition. Ruby red with violet reflections, it shows cherry, blackberry, raspberry and spice. The palate is fresh and savoury, with a lively mineral vein, delicate but persistent tannins and an elegant spiciness at the end.
