Description
Torcicoda 2022 is an intense ruby red color with light violet hues. Notes of fruit dominate the nose, particularly blackberries and raspberries that meet spicy hints of licorice and chocolate.
Entry on the palate is soft and generous with good structure sustained by elegant tannins. It closes with a long, persistent finish accented by a pleasant aftertaste of cherry jam.
Vinification
Grapes were harvested slightly over-ripe. After destemming, the berries were gently crushed, and the must was transferred to stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature that did not exceed 28 °C (82 °F). During maceration on the skins, periodic pump overs and delèstage (rack and return) were performed over a period of approximately 13 days. Torcicoda was left to age for about 18 months before bottling.
