Vinification of the Valpolicella Superiore from Antiche Terre

This balanced red wine from Italy is made from the Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grape varieties. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in small oak barrels at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by maturation for several months in oak barrels. The ageing in wooden barrels is followed by a long maturation in the bottle, which makes this red wine even more complex.
