IL FORTIFICATO Vino Liquoroso

Fortificato is a sweet fortified wine with an intense garnet red color and violet reflections. Its aroma is dominated by notes of plum and cherry jam, while the taste is smooth, velvety, and persistent on the palate. 

Bunches are hand picked and rigorously selected at the end of September. Traditional natural drying of the grapes starting at the end of September for at least 140 days to obtain a perfect sugar concentration. Following the traditional “fortification technique”, used in the past in Valpolicella, brandy aged 10 years on average is added to the ‘Recioto’ wine before bottling it. This gives to the wine more body, structure and longevity.
