Veneto Rosso IGT "Urban" 2020 - Masiero

A Veneto Rosso IGT from Masiero, made from Merlot and Cabernet Franc from a biodynamically managed vineyard with vines over 70 years old on limestone soil. The grapes are selected and hand harvested. Spontaneous fermentation takes place in open wooden vats with 30 days of skin contact, followed by 12 months in large concrete vats. No fining or filtration is carried out, and added sulphur is kept to the minimum necessary. Bright ruby, it shows blueberry, redcurrant, violet, rose, tobacco and rocky minerality on the nose. The palate is full and satisfying, supported by acidity reminiscent of small forest fruits and an unusual savouriness, with a youthful but well-integrated tannin.
