Cordon Spur, with 4,000 to 4,500 vines per hectare and a yield of 2 kg per vine
harvest
The grapes are picked toward the end of September, after they have just started to dry on the vine. This drying process then continues until February in crates in a special drying area, under controlled conditions of humidity and at natural winter temperatures
vinification
In February, a soft pressing is carried out, followed by brief cold maceration of the skins and then a slow white wine fermentation, office, interrupted by a series of rackings that allow the wine to maintain its sweetness because the remaining sugar is not transformed into alcohol. Immediately afterwards it goes into barriques and barrels of European oak for around 6 months

serving suggestions
It is a splendid dessert wine, that goes well with traditional Veronese specialities such as pandoro, panettone, shortbread and dry pastries in general – even those that are based on chocolate. Exceptional with cheeses such as Gorgonzola, Roquefort or Stilton
