Il Casone Raboso 2023

Veneto is a wine region in the North Eastern corner of Italy. Many of the vineyards are relatively flat and fertile, so vineyard management is required to manage the yields in order to concentrate the flavours. The vines are planted with a sunny orientation and gentle coastal breezes from the Adriatic Sea help to keep the vines dry and healthy. The Alps help to protect the vineyards from cold, northerly winds. Warm days and cool nights offer the perfect combination to allow slow maturation of the grapes, maintaining beautiful balance between natural acidity and sugar levels. The Raboso vines are grown in chalky and volcanic soils.

The grapes were destemmed to reduce the levels of tannins in the resulting wine, pressed and macerated to extract aromatics, flavour and fine tannins. Fermentation took place with selected yeasts in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. The cuvées were then blended and kept in tank to retain the purity of fruit and freshness, until bottled.
