{"product_id":"giuseppe-quintarelli-alzero-cabernet-italie","title":"Giuseppe Quintarelli - Alzero Cabernet - 2015","description":"\u003cp\u003eLocated in the heart of Valpolicella, in the hills north of Verona, the Giuseppe Quintarelli estate cultivates Alzero vines on well-exposed hillsides overlooking the valley. The plots, planted on limestone and basaltic soils mixing clay and pebbles, benefit from a ventilated climate and significant temperature variations. This privileged location, between the pre-Alpine foothills and Lake Garda, allows for slow and complete ripening of the grapes, an essential condition for the appassimento method and for obtaining deep and complex red wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade from Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot vines, this red wine is produced using the estate's traditional method, with manual harvesting followed by a long appassimento (grape drying). After gentle pressing, fermentation proceeds slowly, with prolonged maceration to extract color and aromatic complexity. Aging then takes place over many years in large oak barrels and casks of various sizes, allowing for controlled oxygenation and progressive refinement of the tannic structure before late bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003eripe black fruits\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecandied cherry\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eprune\u003c\/strong\u003e, enriched with nuances of \u003cstrong\u003eviolet\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003edried rose\u003c\/strong\u003e, complemented by spicy touches of \u003cstrong\u003epepper\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003elicorice\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eclove\u003c\/strong\u003e, as well as woody accents of \u003cstrong\u003evanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003elight tobacco\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003ecocoa\u003c\/strong\u003e.
