Appassimento withered vine method - dried grapes
"Appassimento withered vine method" is the brewing process used in Italy to brew the iconic Italian wine Amarone, which has more than 3,000 years of history. In the dry vine method, the grapes are placed on a bamboo mat to dry naturally for a long time before pressing. Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it also carries certain risks. During the period, if it is damp or rotted, the grapes will not be able to be used for winemaking. Drying the grapes will cause the fruit to lose water and concentrate more sugar. When the grapes are pressed, you get only half the juice concentrate from the fresh grapes, but this also results in wines that are more alcoholic, darker in color, fuller in tannins, more fruity, and more balanced in structure.
Primitivo
Resistance to disease and adversity: it resists little too rotten grapes and spring frosts; Sensitive to drought and high summer temperatures, with creeping and burning of the acorns; Average resistance to oil and mildew (at this cryptogams, the "Primitive" resists more than the varieties of white grapes).
Nero D’Avola
Nero d'Avola is "the most important red wine grape in Sicily" and is one of Italy's most important indigenous varieties. It is named after Avola in the far south of Sicily, and its wines are compared to New World Shirazes, with sweet tannins and plum or peppery flavors. It also contributes to Marsala Rubino blends.
Puglia
