Sossó
DESCRIPTION
Born in 1989, it takes its name from the small brook 'Sossó' that rises at the foot of the hill where the grapes come from. The result of a careful selection of Merlot and
Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso grapes - with a small amount of Pignolo - from the oldest vineyards in Rosazzo, it is the result of meticulous vinification and ageing in small
barrels for eighteen months. A wine of great complexity and structure, it stands out for its elegant, ripe, fruity and sweet tannins.
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
Grape variety: Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso - Merlot - Pignolo
Denomination: D.O.C. Friuli Colli Orientali
Designation: Rosazzo Rosso
Soil type: Flysch of marls and sandstones of Eocene origin
Grape varieties: Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso - Merlot - Pignolo
Training system: Guyot
Methods of defence: Integrated pest control with controlled environmental impact.
Harvest time: Merlot: end of September; Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso and Pignolo: beginning of October
Harvesting method: Manual in small crates
Vinification: The grapes are gently destemmed and crushed. Fermentation takes place with maceration at controlled temperature, in stainless steel containers and conical
vats. Frequent pumping over is carried out for a period of about three weeks in order to extract colour and aroma from the skins. Racking is then carried out.
Ageing: The wines are blended and racked into small French oak barrels where they mature for eighteen months. The bottled wine is aged in temperature-controlled rooms
for a further eighteen months.
Sensory notes:
Colour: deep and impenetrable ruby red with purple reflections.
Bouquet: of considerable impact and penetration, with sweet notes of ripe fruit - primarily plum, blueberry and blackberry - and further complexity in the development with
hints of violet, sage and rosemary, slight but perfectly integrated suggestions of vanilla and cloves; very long and persistent, complete and complex
Taste: very important structure immediately noticeable, solid and dense but at the same time smooth and sensual; the velvety tannins and sweet flavours are refreshed and
given additional impetus and length by the savoury acidity; rich and mineral finish
Pairings: Red meats, roasts, feathered game, medium to full-flavoured cheeses.
Serving temperature: 17 - 18 °C
Alcohol (% vol): 13,50
