An exceptional year. A hot, dry summer and an early harvest of very healthy grapes.
A year of extremes: record heat and little rain, with healthy grapes and an early harvest.
The winter was warm, and the following months set twenty year records for maximum temperatures, July above all. April and July were very dry. Flowering came early, in late May and early June, and the heat of July and August did not slow ripening. The hot, dry weather kept downy mildew, powdery mildew and botrytis away, while careful vineyard work eased the stress on the vines. Harvest from about 10 September.
Corvina Veronese IGT “Cresasso” 2015
Cresasso is made from 100% Corvina Veronese grown in the Costalunga estate in Sant’Ambrogio di Valpolicella at 300 to 350 metres above sea level on predominantly calcareous morainic soils rich in rock fragments. The name derives from the local dialect for this stony terrain, with ‘sasso’ meaning stone and ‘cre’ referencing the cretaceous character of the soil. The harvest is carried out in two distinct phases: an initial selection in the second half of September, with grapes laid in crates to dry for approximately two months before fermentation, and a second pass of the remaining fruit that ferments fresh. The two fermentations are then blended to form the final wine, which is fermented in stainless steel tanks for around 20 days with pump-overs, then aged for 24 months in 500-litre French oak barriques. The wine is deep ruby red, complex and structured, with the density and concentration typical of a partially dried-grape method applied to a single variety.
