12er Vorteilspaket - Doppio Passo Appassimento Puglia IGT - CVCB

When swirling the wine glass, this red wine reveals a high density and fullness, which is evident in the clear stained glass windows at the edge of the glass. The nose of this CVCB red wine reveals all kinds of morello cherries, plums, damsons, black cherries and blueberries. As if that wasn't already impressive, the ageing in large wooden barrels adds further aromas such as dark chocolate, gingerbread spice and cigar box.

The CVCB 12er Vorteilspaket presents itself to the connoisseur wonderfully dry. This red wine is never coarse or austere, as you would expect from a wine from the Icon wine segment. On the palate, the texture of this powerful red wine is wonderfully velvety and dense. On the finish, this youthful wine from the Apulia wine-growing region impresses with its considerable length. There are again hints of mulberry and blueberry.

Vinification of the CVCB 12er Vorteilspaket

This red wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, namely Primitivo. Only first-class grapes were used for this wonderfully powerful single-varietal wine from CVCB. The 12-pack is an Old World wine in the best sense of the word, as this Italian wine exudes an extraordinary European charm that clearly underlines the success of wines from the Old World. The grapes for this Doppio Passo from Italy are harvested exclusively by hand after optimal ripeness has been ensured. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. This is followed by fermentation in large oak barrels at controlled temperatures. Once it has finished, the 12er Vorteilspaket is aged in oak barrels for a further 12 months.

Dining recommendations for the 12er Vorteilspaket from CVCB

Ideally, drink this red wine from Italy at a temperature of 15 - 18°C to accompany a potato pan with salmon, spaghetti with caper-tomato sauce or vegetable couscous with beef rissoles.
