TASTING NOTES

Tradition and family: these are the two key words that sum up the vision of the Monte Santoccio winery. It is a small family-run business which, with its four hectares of vineyards, is located in the heart of the classic area of Valpolicella, more precisely in Fumane. The area, nestled between Lake Garda and the Lessinia mountains, has a long tradition of red wines, and is famous above all for the dried (passito) red grape wine, Recioto. We immediately notice that the philosophy of the company, managed with passion and rigour by Nicola Ferrari with the help of his wife Laura, is to produce quality wines based on tradition. Having then worked for the Giuseppe Quintarelli winery, one of the most prestigious companies in the classic area, added a great deal of experience. Grappa di Recioto and Amarone is a distinct, very fragrant and soft distillate, the result of the grape pomace of two very high quality products and which is then aged in steel tanks before being put in 50 cl bottles. From parents like this, only an exceptional product could be born. It is precisely the use of the pomace of these two wines that gives that silkiness, complexity and softness to a product which, despite its 44% alcohol, does not bother the nose or palate at all. On the contrary, the sense of smell is opulent and balanced, a perfect combination of fruity notes, derived from the sweetness of the grapes, and ethereal notes that are striking for their cleanliness and balance. On the finish, we get balsamic and chocolate hints. In the mouth, it is a creamy, warm and unpredictable white grappa. The subtle acidity makes it lively, nervous, up to the finish where it explodes in its balsamic quality. Highly recommended as a meditation product, it is perfect for finishing off Sunday meals and other convivial occasions. Read more Read less
