Gutturnio Frizzante - Torre Fornello

The Gutturnio Frizzante from the Emilia-Romagna wine region reveals itself in the glass with a luminous ruby red. The nose of this red wine from Emilia-Romagna enchants with hints of raspberry and strawberry. Its especially fruity character makes this wine so unique.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry taste profile. It was bottled with an unusually low residual sugar content.

On the palate, this balanced red wine features an incredibly silky texture. The finish impresses with noteworthy length. Again, notes of strawberry and raspberry emerge. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the clay-dominated soils add to the complexity.

Vinification of Torre Fornello Gutturnio Frizzante

The foundation of the first-class and wonderfully balanced Gutturnio Frizzante cuvée from Torre Fornello are Barbera and Bonarda grapes. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Emilia-Romagna. The vines root deeply into clay soils here. The grapes for this Italian red wine are harvested exclusively by hand once optimal ripeness is achieved. After harvest, the grapes are quickly transported to the cellar. Here, they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The fermentation is followed by several months of aging on the fine lees before the wine is finally bottled.
