Foradori Granato Teroldego 2022
100% Teroldego.
“We can all predict what happens in a silky vintage, on the silkiest and oldest vineyards of Teroldego: Smooth Operator. A perfect sphere of lust; the ideal water temperature in the bath tub, a foot massage, a silent car, a perfectly cooked chicken on the grill, a warm soup on a freezing day, a hug...call it what you want but today I call it Granato 2022 (maybe this sentence is too much, sorry). Anyway, an all-out horizontal Granato. Bordeaux-ish, Ornellaia-ish, overdressed but classy. Fire on the nose, tar, heat: the streets of Monte Carlo. Ideal for young billionaires. Tabasco in the mouth mixed with something burning in an Orthodox chapel. Myrrh, incense, sacrifices...I don't know. A Granato for cult leaders, with a finish of Listerine. Isn't wine an interesting hobby? Cultural reference: Smooth Operator by Sade.”
100% Teroldego sourced from Foradori’s oldest Pergola trained vines on the Campo Rotaliano. The vineyards are planted on a mix of alluvial, river pebbles and gravel soils. Fermented in large open oak vats and them aged in Tonneaux for 15 months. Importer note
