MARZEMINO MOZART Trentino Doc
DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE PROTETTA
GRAPE VARIETY
Grown in the Vallagarina area close to Rovereto in the south of the province. Here there are outcrops of basalt in the soils which give rise to clay (dark earth), which in turn leaves a strong imprint on the wine. The selection dedicated to W. A. Mozart comes from an area called 'Ziresi' (cherry trees) at Volano. In his opera Don Giovanni, Mozart repeatedly mentions the "excellent Marzemino".
WINEMAKING
After crushing there follows the fermentation at 24-26°C with the solid parts of the must being kept entirely submerged, without exceeding with the maceration. Malolactic fermentation and subsequent maturation occur in stainless steel followed by bottling.
DESCRIPTION
Bright ruby with violet reflections, the nose is also reminiscent of this flower. On the palate it is delicate, inviting, mellow with mild tannins.
PAIRING
It is highly recommended with mildly flavoured dishes such as those based on mushrooms. It will benefit from a year or two in bottle.
Serve at room temperature.
