Sol Doré
Passito · Benaco Bresciano I.G.P.

The Garda region tradition also offers sweet dessert wines. Our Sol Doré is the result of a selection of our best grapes that are left to over-ripen until mid-October, and are then placed on racks to achieve natural withering of the skins. Once the withered grapes have been delicately pressed, a must is obtained that will be fermented in small wooden kegs. For some vintages this must is integrated with concentrated must obtained from the deep-freezing of grapes from the company’s vineyards, which are frozen pressed (ice wine method) by pneumatic press. The aim is to reach a high alcoholic strength while maintaining a good sugary residue. Annual production of our dessert wine is only around 8,000 bottles of 50 cl..

Grape variety: Trebbiano di Lugana and Chardonnay.

Mouth: soft with a perfect equilibrium and the acid component fresh and tart with hints of Kaiser pear and arbutus honey.
