{"product_id":"giuseppe-quintarelli-primofiore-italie","title":"Giuseppe Quintarelli - Primofiore - 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eLocated in the Valpolicella hills, north of Verona, the Giuseppe Quintarelli estate cultivates Primofiore vines on well-exposed slopes at medium altitudes, benefiting from a temperate climate due to the proximity of Lake Garda. The soils, predominantly limestone and clay-loam, offer natural drainage and good water retention, allowing for slow and consistent ripening of the grapes. This hilly terroir, combining old vines and newer plots, produces a wine that precisely expresses the classic character of Valpolicella Classica.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are hand-picked at perfect ripeness, carefully sorted, then destemmed before traditional fermentation in vats, with long macerations aimed at gently extracting color and structure. Malolactic fermentation then occurs naturally. The wine is aged for several years in large Slavonian oak barrels, allowing for slow oxygenation and harmonious refinement of the tannins, while preserving the freshness and aromatic expression typical of the house style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003ered cherry\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eripe black fruits\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eplum\u003c\/strong\u003e, complemented by delicate \u003cstrong\u003efloral\u003c\/strong\u003e touches, \u003cstrong\u003espicy\u003c\/strong\u003e nuances of pepper and licorice, and a light \u003cstrong\u003eherbaceous\u003c\/strong\u003e register reminiscent of Mediterranean herbs.
