Davvero 2022 – Calalta

Davvero - Calalta

The "Davvero" is a macerated white wine made from Riesling grapes that grow on clayey soils with iron and aluminum silicates. Manual harvest of the grapes, destemming of the bunches, and spontaneous fermentation with maceration on the skins for 45 days. It is aged in used oak tonneaux until the spring following the harvest. Bottled without filtration and without added sulfur. The Davvero has an opalescent amber yellow color. On the nose, complex and intense aromas that develop on notes of ripe fruit that are combined with balsamic notes of camphor. On the palate it is full-bodied, enveloping, fresh, sapid, and closes with a pleasant tannic sensation. Very nice is its label showing the company logo, consisting of 4 black brush strokes.

Service

We recommend to taste it at a temperature of 10/12 ° in tulip glasses. Great wine that you can appreciate right away or leave it in the cellar for a few years.

Pairing

Excellent as an aperitif, it is particularly versatile in finding a perfect accompaniment to food. Perfect with seafood salads, crustaceans, soft cheeses, it is enhanced with risottos and light fish-based second courses.
