“La Corte del Pozzo” Valpolicella DOC

The memory of farm animals is very dear to our far

-

ming history. In particular, a large group of these

squawking birds, used to run around undisturbed in

the courtyard and among the vineyards. The repre

-

sentation of the goose in a double-breasted jacket

and tie is meant to symbolize the evolution of our or

-

ganic wine, which over the years has reached the re

-finement and elegance it has always sought.The but-tonhole flower is a Phacelia tanacetifolia, one of the

flowers that we plant in the vineyards following the

biodynamic method of green manure.

Finally, the “Goose Approved” logo expresses the ide-als of environmental sustainability and respect for the

terroir. Our goal is regenerative agriculture, beyond

organic.

COLOR

Vibrant ruby red.

AROMA

Red fruit jam and fresh red fruits with hints of

spices and pepper.

TASTE

The tannins and acidity combine with the fla

-vours of ripe fruit. This enriches the wines with

a final touch of softness. On the palate, the

wine is dry, smooth, well-bodied and balanced.

HARVEST

Harvest begins in late September. We pass

through the vineyards several times to ensure

grapes are harvested only when they are matu-re. Only the best grapes will be pressed.

WINEMAKING TECHNIQUE

A portion of the grapes are placed in crates to

be dried for 15-20 days, whilst others are cru

-

shed a few hours after being picked. The gra

-

pes that have been dried are fermented sepa-rately from those that were pressed fresh. The

fresh grapes are fermented in stainless steel

vats. The dried ones are left to ferment in wo-oden barrels. After 10-12 months the wine is

then bottles and left to mature for 5-6 months.
