La Corte Del Pozzo Bardolino 2019

La Corte Del Pozzo Bardolino 2019 is from the producer Fasoli Gino. They are a producer of wine in Veneto region in Italy. This wine is from the slopes facing the Lago del Gardas east side. The mix of grapes are Corvina (60%), Corvinone (30%). and Rondinella (10%). The vintage is 2019 and the ABV is 13%. The grapes that are used for this wine are the same as they use for the more famous ripasso and amarone wine but here they have been grown in Bardolino and here the wine will get another character. The wine is fermented in steel tanks and then is stored also in steel tanks until bottling. So no oak character or any ripasso character here.

This wine is quite light and young but shows off the grapes used in the wine. in the taste I get strawberry and red cherry with some black pepper at the end. Interesting and a fresh young red wine which is very good.

Fasoli Gino one more time

Last time I tried a Fasoli Gino wine it was a white wine. This time it is time for their red Valpolicella called La Corte del Pozzo from 2010. It consists of of 70% Corvina grapes and  30%, Rondinella grapes. The colour is a dark red or maybe light ruby. The wine smells of red and black currants. The taste is a big smack of red and black currants with an underlying taste of vanilla and it is very dry. It is nice for being a red wine. It seem that Valpolicella produces red wines that I like. Definately an area worth a visit.

And if you are in the Valpolicella area. Visit Verona and enjoy the most beautiful town square in the world. Especialy during evening. Salute!

Borgoletto Soave

In summer it is nice to relax and just open a bottle and just enjoy life.

I have decided to focus on the Fasoli Gino and see what kind of wines they have. http://www.fasoligino.com/
This due to a friend of mine meeting one of the producers in Italy.
The first wine to taste is a bottle of Borgoletto Soave, I just could find the small 37,5 cl bottle and that feel so small. It is ecologically produced and has KRAV marking for the Swedes reading this. The taste is strong and very much grapefruit. It need some food with the wine and I tasted it with a very strong blue cheese Cabriolego from Spain. And together with this cheese it is very good. The aftertaste lingers long in the mouth. I also tried this wine with salami and it didn't work so well with the salami.
Since the producer is situated in Soave the next wine will be a Valpolicella.
