Once again, hints of raspberry and strawberry are evident. The aftertaste is complemented by mineral notes from the sandy soils.

Vinification of La Source Cornalin

The basis for the well-balanced Cornalin from Italy is grapes from the Cornalin variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in the Aostatal. The vines root deeply into sandy soils here. When the grapes reach their optimal ripeness, they are harvested by hand exclusively, without the aid of coarse and hardly selective machinery. After the harvest, the grapes are immediately taken to the winery. Here they are selected and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the Cornalin continues to harmonize on the fine lees for 8 months.

Food pairing recommendations for La Source Cornalin

This Italian wine should ideally be enjoyed at a temperature of 15 - 18°C. It pairs perfectly as an accompanying wine for roasted veal liver with apples, onions, and balsamic vinegar sauce, ossobuco, or duck breast with sugar snaps.
