Jèma Corvina Veronese IGT
2016

Smooth
powerful
peppery

An homage to Corvina grapes – in this case, from Sant’Ambrogio di Valpolicella – which undergo 20 days of drying before vinification. Barrel ageing lasts 18 months in French oak.

The sensory characteristics of our Corvina Veronese IGT are given by a warm and dry winter, with only one snow event. From April to August, there were fluctuating temperatures, heavy rainfall, and thunderstorms. September was warm and breezy, with low humidity, which was ideal for the growth cycle.

Corvina Veronese IGT “”Jèma”” 2016 is a bright red-purple in colour. On the nose, it releases a bouquet of red fruits and macerated cherries with lightly roasted notes and hints of cocoa, coffee, and black pepper. The palate is soft, full, and harmonious, with a long, lingering finish.

climate trend

Winter goes by with above-average temperatures and no precipitation except for an isolated snow event. A cold and rainy period begins in April, with fluctuating temperatures and downpours from May extending into July and August. Summer culminates with thunderstorm events in the normal range, giving way to a warm and breezy September – factors that keep humidity low and allow a good completion of the growing cycle.

vinification & maturation

Rigorously selected Corvina grapes are vinified according to classic red winemaking. Ageing in French oak barriques and tonneaux follows for 18 months.
