Wine Description:
Prà Morandina Valpolicella is a distinguished red wine from the renowned Prà winery in the Valpolicella appellation of Italy. The vineyard is strategically located with a southeast exposure at an altitude of 450 meters, fostering optimal grape ripening. The soil, rich in limestone, imparts a unique character to the wine. The grape varietals include Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Oseleta. Employing traditional winemaking techniques, the grapes undergo a gentle appassimento process for 20 days, followed by destemming and vinification using the délestage method. The wine ferments in vertical steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation in large oak barrels for 3-6 months. The result is a wine with a perfect balance, expressing the terroir through its nuanced flavors of dark fruits, complemented by subtle oak notes.
