Rosa di Monte Torre
We have been cultivating this “difficult vine” on the slope of Monte Torre (approx. 130 m a.s.l.) in Custoza for over 10 years: Pink Muscat. Despite its scarce yield, the genetically hard pollination and floral abortion, the anomalous development of grape berries, nevertheless, we obtain a surprisingly sweetnon sweet pleasant, harmonious and smooth wine.

Training system and yield: Trellis - 40q/ha
Vinification: Very late harvest with overripe grapes and fermentation in stainless steel vats.
Ageing: After 5/6 months it is bottled to age for approx. 24 months.
Colour: Bright and vivid deep coral pink.
Bouquet: Complex and harmonious scent of raisin and plums,
exotic fruits(pineapple, passion fruit) and citrus
(lemon and pineapple) and a subtle fragrance of rose.
Flavour: Harmonious and full-bodied but smooth-textured,
deliciously sweet but never cloy and fat given that light
persistent acidity leaving a clean mouth feeling.

and almonds. Ideal also alone.
