Jarno Rosso Colline Pescaresi IGT Jarno Trulli
Winery information: Formula One superstar Jarno Trulli says: "I've always sought perfection in everything I do: in a racing car, where split seconds make the difference; and in the vineyard, where it has taken years of hard work to give our wine its special character
and originality".
Jarno's estate, Podere Castorani, which was already well known in 1793, is farmed organically, thanks partly to their location at 300 metres, where the wind can maintain the natural health of the vines, some of which are over 25 years old. The new winery is fitted with the most modern technology. Whites are pressed in modern basket presses and includes a grape drying room, allowing for the production of "Jarno", an Amarone type wine of which the grand prix ace is particularly proud.
Vinification: Grapes were dried and then fermented at 30c with frequent pumping-overs.
Maceration lasted 40 days, malolactic fermentation took place during maceration.The is aged on its fine lees in oak casks for 12 months followed by a further 6 months in tank. Once bottled the wine is left to rest in bottle for 12 months prior to release.
Tasting Note: The wine shows characteristic rich, dark chocolate and slightly raisiny tones
which are carried through to the full and spicy palate. Long, intense and persistent on the finish.
Every day serving suggestion: Serve with red meats and game.
