After the vinification and fermentation of the Corvina, Molinara and Rondinella grapes in steel tanks, the wine then undergoes a second fermentation on the Amarone lees. This process is termed the “Ripasso” method. Dark ruby color, brilliant highlights, black-cherry nose with a raisiny complex of scents, medium body, surprisingly flavorful, deep, round tastes punctuated by a slightly bitter hint, delivered with a graceful lightness.

Teroldego Rotaliano DOC Riserva
Reg. $21.99 now $18.99
The Teroldego vine is an indigenous varietal of Trentino where it has found its ideal environment in the Piana Rotaliana. The name seems to derive from "Tiroler Gold" (Tyrol Gold) a name that indicates its presence at the Court of Vienna in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It was later called "Tiroldico" and finally Teroldego. It is the most famous red wine from Trentino, and for this reason it is called the "royal wine of Trentino". This Riserva is produced only in the best vintages from manually selected and harvested grapes of the most renowned areas of the Piana Rotaliana: "Fron", "Camorzi" and "Sottodossi".Intense ruby red in color with complex, characteristic, pleasant ripe fruit aroma, prunes and blackcurrant. Full-bodied, well-balanced, pleasantly tannic, we saved the best for last! A wine of great character, it pairs well with stews, roasted red meats, grilled dishes, and seasoned cheese. Ideal with Risotto al Teroldego.
March Event Schedule all $5 per person from 5 to 6:30p.m. All in store unless stated.
