LUGANA DOC - Nicolis Winery

Soave DOC IL 56

IMPRESSIONS

Determined, fragrant and elegant: our being Soave.

We produce more Borgoletto than any other wine

in our range. It is a great easy drinking wine that

expresses the character of our soil.

The Valpolicella Superiore the red of the line Télos of Sant'Antonio was born in vineyards located in Monte Garbi, in the Veronese municipality of Mezzane di Sotto.

It is produced mainly with Corvina grapes and with Rondinella, Croatin and Osleta grapes, collected and selected only by hand in the second week of September. After soft pressing in the total absence of oxygen, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature, without any addition of sulphites. Then the wine refines for 12 months in new and second -step French oak barrels.

hints. The bouquet is intense,

DESCRIPTION

Pale straw yellow colour with

greenish reflections. It has a delicate,

yet intense bouquet with marked

floral notes when young, which

becomes wider and reminiscent of

ripe fruit (pear, peach and melon)

with ageing. Its taste is elegant but

discreet, with a pleasantly fresh

flavour due to the light acidity which

exalts the sensations.

Medium intensity ruby red colour. The scent is vinous, characteristic, pleasant and delicate, reminiscent of the fruits that ripen in the area: cherries, morello cherries and plums. The taste is dry, full-bodied, bitterish, savory and harmonious, sometimes captivating due to the pungent ginger, a typical note in our wines.

“Like a statue the souls of which is concealed in the raw material: this is what this Cru is like, produced in a hilly area with a mainly calcareous soil.

A Soave Classico Doc in which one can recognize immediately the limestone: an easy material to carve, friable. Extremely pliable.

And like the most graceful works of art, the wine of such a terroir is gentle.

Its elegance is immediately perceivable with the nose, in a very fine bouquet of white flowers and white pulp fruit”.

The material that enlivens the Perinato Soave Classico Doc is volcanic, like the hilly terroir where the homonymous vineyard has grown since 1990. So this wine is made without doubt a noticeable minerality , salinity and saltiness contribute towards moulding a bold Cru. Volcanic.

This wine is dedicated to the memory of our origins: Perinato is in fact the surname that our ancestors bore in 1600.

“Wines are like statues carved by the enologist working on the raw material which is their essence”.
