Valpolicella Superiore 'Maternigo' Fratelli Tedeschi 2011

The Valpolicella Superiore "Maternigo" by Fratelli Tedeschi born in the homonymous vineyard, on a plot of land that has characteristics in terms of soil, exposure and plant responses can define a real cru. In the vineyard Maternigo we also find the Impervious, a small plot of land from the steep slope that is conducted under organic; Here we find a high presence of white marl and yellow which transfer to this Valpolicella freshness really important, without forgetting the necessary balance. Here each individual plant is monitored and maturation is followed day by day, with a careful selection of grapes during harvest and thinning that lets create a wine fruity and spicy, concentrated aromas and freshness typical of these vines. Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone, a percentage ranging from vintage to vintage, after being harvested are left to ferment for 20 days, before resting for 14 months in oak casks and stay 6 months in bottle. The result is a wine that will last beautifully for up to 10 years, from intense ruby red color and pronounced fruit where the notes of currant, black cherry, cherry and plum mix with hints ethereal, mineral and spicy. The Valpolicella "Maternigo" has a rich texture, fresh and balanced, with a concentration relevant and balanced to perfection by a tannic structure really interesting. "Maternigo": a Valpolicella long, fresh, persistent and very elegant...
