This delicious red wine from Pasqua, Pasqua Passimento Rosso Romeo & Juliet, is made from Corvina, Croatina, and Merlot. A perfect blend for this top-notch wine! What makes this wine so special, besides the label, is the winemaking method: the Passito Method. After harvest, the grapes are laid out in small crates in the sun to dry. The winemaker allows the grapes to dry to approximately 30%, increasing their sugar content and concentrating their flavors. After vinification, this delicious red wine is aged for three months in oak barrels to enhance its power and suppleness.
Is your mouth watering yet? Well, it is! The color is deep ruby red with a black core. The nose of this Pasqua Passimento Rosso Romeo & Juliet offers rich aromas of red fruit, spices, vanilla, currants, and light cedar. The taste is delicious. Just like a young Amarone! Delicate nuances of ripe black fruit are balanced with spices and vanilla. The intense finish is soft and sultry—phenomenal!
