by | This red blend is comprised of 40% Merlot, 30% Corvina, and 30% Croatina. All the grapes are from Valpantena in Valpolicella, Italy. The Merlot is dried for 1 month, the Corvina for 3 months, and the Croatina isn’t dried.
The nose is lux with a scent of nutmeg, cherry flambé, and bitter almond.
Passimento Rosso is off-dry, rich and exhibits flavors of cherry, plum, baking spices, and a long raisin finish.
This wine is more of a first cousin to Amarone Della Valpolicella and produced in the appassimento style.
Appassimento translates to “fading” in Italian and refers to a winemaking process where dried grapes, instead of fresh grapes are fermented.
Winemakers use the appassimento process to create full-bodied wines, packed with intense fruit, and a balanced acidity.
This wine is scrumptious and has a richness that develops with each sip.
Passimento Rosso pairs with lasagna, steaks, meatloaf, hearty veggie stew, pepperoni pizza, ratatouille, Italian subs, and old school sausage with peppers.
