Tasting note Monte del Frá Monastero
Italian white wine from dried grapes with the scent of apricot candied fruit and jam. The taste is intensely sweet but nice and fresh. Delicious with desserts with chocolate or blue mold cheeses.
Description
The Northern Italian Veneto has a long tradition of making Passito wines. The process works as follows; the harvested grapes are not fermented immediately, but are set aside from the end of September so that they can dry. The grapes are only pressed in February. These shriveled grapes then have a great taste and sugar concentration. The skins ferment slowly with the juice for at least 15 days and give beautiful, very ripe fruit aromas. Fermentation then continues in small oak casks on which the wine matures for about 12 months. Monte del Frá uses the grape varieties garganega (60%) cortese 10% and each for 15% sauvignon and chardonnay. The result is a particularly sweet wine of high quality.
