Speri - LA ROGGIA Recioto della Valpolicella DOCG 2018

 For the Recioto, like the Amarone, the best, healthy grapes are dried in special crates until they have lost about 40% of their liquid. The "raisins" are then concentrated in sugar and aromas and are fermented, pressed and then matured in wooden barrels. In contrast to Amarone, however, a considerable portion of residual sugar is obtained. This creates strong, concentrated sweet dessert wines with intense fruit aromas.

For the Recioto La Roggia, grapes from historic Valpolicella Classico area are dried for 110 days, losing 44% of the weight.

The extraction and fermentation is carried out in stainless steel over a period of 25 days. The must is separated from the berries and the fermentation is finished in 500l oak barrels.

The clarified wine then ripens for 24 months in 500l barrels of French Allier oak and closes in the bottle before the wine goes on sale.
