This great red wine shows a nice, charming ruby colour with pomegranate reflections and a fantastic bouquet of spices, pepper, hazelnut and vanilla. It has a full, dry, robust, velvety, austere and well-proportioned taste. Made from Syrah grapes only, it refined for one year in French barriques and six months in bottle. Contains sulphites. Produced by Azienda Agricola Pravis - Loc. Le Biolche, 1 - 38076, Lasino (TN) - Italy.
The producer
The grapevines cultivated by Pravis have put down their roots in the prehistory of Trentino, on slopes that are now vineyards, but were once the ancient pathways of prehistoric man, and on fields that allowed the early inhabitants of the Valley of Laghi to reap the riches of the land. Although grapevines are now cultivated according to strict wine-making criteria, Pravis still attempt to do things as simply as possible and obtain wines that really do have their origins in the land. The chosen vineyards, which are owned by the company, are at an altitude of 200 to 700 meters, right on the natural terraces where the modern wine-making traditions of Trentino originate. Nothing here is artificial. The grapes mature with the help of a unique mountain climate. A wind, known locally as "Ora del Garda", and the changing shape of the fields, allow splendid late harvests. It is as if Pravis takes the goodness of the Trentino countryside and puts it in a bottle.
