This wine takes its name from the farm where it is produced. The altitude and peculiar features of the vineyard where the grapes are cultivated give this wine unique organoleptic properties and the typical character of the great red wines. It is fermented in stainless steel tanks, where the malolactic fermentation also takes place. The Torricello is left to age in oak barrels for at least 12 months, and it is bottled around 18 months after the harvest. The Torricello is an expression of the love for enology of its producer, an elegant wine where the red fruit and spicy fragrances (mainly pepper and cinnamon) gently blend with the aromas given by the aging in wood barrels, creating an intense and fascinating aroma. The body and structure of this wine make for an excellent vin de garde, to be paired with meat, especially game meat.
“Gli Stridoli – Frizzante” is the sparkling version of one of the most famous and traditional white wines in Romagna, a lively and enjoyable wine. The process of second fermentation gives this wine a flower and yeast scent, making it a young and fresh wine, the ideal choice for a toast and a casual meeting.
This wine is exclusively made from Albana grapes from moderately loose-packed south-west facing soil of the hills around Bertinoro, as stated in the product specification. The vineyard is quite old and has a limited production, but the quality of its grapes is excellent. The bunch is loosely packed and average in length. The ripening is thoroughly controlled to ensure the grapes get the right balance between sugar concentration and acidity. The grapes are hand-picked and the harvest usually takes place after the first ten days of September. The wine making technique is a modern reinterpretation of traditional systems, with the introduction of current techniques like must chilling and inhibition of the must oxidation, in order to get and preserve very delicate primary aromas. The wine is preserved in small stainless steel tanks until the following Spring, when it is bottled. This is a quality dry white wine, straw-yellow in color; the scent is pleasant and intense, with a persistent ripe fruit and acacia blossom hint. The taste is warm and strong, with a pleasant tannic note denoting the character of the wine. It should be served at a temperature of 12 – 14 °C in medium size glasses, and is recommended paired with starters, traditional homemade pasta from Romagna like passatelli and cappelletti in broth, as well as delicate white meat, fish and semi aged cheese.
