Nestled in the rolling hills of Valpolicella, Corte Sant'Alda is a certified biodynamic estate dedicated to crafting wines of purity and authenticity. Their Recioto della Valpolicella is a labor of love, produced from carefully selected Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes that are hand-harvested and dried using the traditional appassimento method. This slow dehydration concentrates the sugars and flavors, resulting in a rich and opulent dessert wine. After fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels to enhance its complexity and structure. Deep ruby in colour, this Recioto bursts with aromas of ripe black cherries, dried figs, and dark chocolate, layered with notes of sweet spice, balsamic, and roasted coffee. The palate is velvety and luscious, with a perfect balance of richness and freshness, leading to a long, elegant finish. A stunning expression of Valpolicella’s historic sweet wine tradition.
