Rabbiosa Vecchio Vitigno Magnum Classic Method 2015 vintage

Old native vine of a grape unknown to most, a variety practically extinct since the end of 1800, revalued and reproduced by the Colmello agricultural company. Classic method bottling 6-7 months after the harvest, rest on indigenous yeasts for at least 60 months. With an intense yellow colour and aromas of dried apricot, cooked apple, apple strudel and light grapefruit. In the mouth it is enveloping, well balanced, mineral and savoury with a good persistence and a light tannin on the finish. A light caramel flavour is perceived and the typical acidity of this grape is smoothed out thanks to the correct ripening of the grapes.
