PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
For Roberto and Cristina, waiting for the opening of a new vintage of Passito di Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi from old “Augesco” biotypes is like waiting for the birth of a new life. The bunches, selected and harvested by hand, are placed in wooden boxes without being stacked. They are hung one by one and left to dry in an old cottage located in the middle of the vineyards, where windows sealed by mosquito nets create ideal natural ventilation. After this natural process, which takes place from November to January, and after fermentation, aging involves 2 years in barrique and at least 6 months in bottle.
The color is fascinating, amber yellow illuminates the glass with golden highlights.
The nose is broad: apricot, peach, figs and dates, quince and pineapple, beginning with acacia honey and toasted malt, concluding with dried mimosa, chocolate, carob, candied fruit, raisins.
The taste is sweet, smooth and enveloping, discreetly fresh and savory; on the palate its aromas persist for a long time.
In the kitchen it is suitable for a variety of desserts, from tarts to dry pastries, from crunchy pastries to nougats, and even chocolate desserts and Saint Honorè cake.
INGREDIENTS AND BENEFITS
A glass of wine a day keeps the doctor away!
It is clear that wine is not harmful to our bodies, as a substance given to us by nature in the form of fruit from which man over the centuries has managed to obtain this heavenly beverage. We can guarantee that our winemakers work by following ancient methods, supported by the aid of contemporary technologies: this is why we feel confident in affirming that Italian wine, the real one, is a panacea for body and mind.
The presence of polyphenols in wine (to a lesser extent in white wines and in large quantities in reds, especially when aged) provides constant protection against cellular oxidation, the main culprit of aging and cellular deterioration.
Perhaps even more obvious and important, however, are the psychological benefits that a good glass of Italian wine can give you: the lightheartedness it gives to an evening with friends, the romance it helps to create in a couple’s dinner, the passion it is able to unleash in anyone lucky enough to taste its essences.
SHIPPING
We receive your order, prepare it and ship it in 24/36 hours.
We are aware that excellent products need excellent packaging and at the same time we cannot risk damaging in any way the precious Italian culinary jewels: for this reason our warehouse is equipped with temperature and lighting ideal for food preservation and the most delicate ones (cheeses, cold cuts and craft beers) are stored inside cold rooms. During shipping, on the other hand, each product is protected with the packaging most appropriate to its characteristics.
Cheeses and cured meats, which despite being aged require special care, travel accompanied by a special slow-release gel ice inside isothermal bags: in this way freshness is preserved until the goods arrive at your home.
For our craft beers, which are unpasteurized and therefore more sensitive to high temperatures than normal, we use special isothermal bubble wrap, which can ensure that the accumulated cold is maintained for the shipping time while protecting the bottles from shocks.
To secure the precious bottles of Italian wine, we have equipped ourselves with special inflatable bags, designed solely for the purpose of immobilizing and protecting this product inside the box.
For jars containing a thousand Italian goodnesses, we use special protective bubble wrap liners.
