Description
Trabucchi d’Illasi “Vintage Box” is a remarkable red wine from the renowned Valpolicella region in Italy. Crafted with utmost care and tradition, this wine is produced using the appassimento technique, where the grapes are hand-harvested and dried to concentrate the flavors before fermentation. The primary varieties used are Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara, which contribute to the wine’s complexity and depth.
The wine exhibits a deep ruby-red color, hinting at its intense and full-bodied character. On the nose, Trabucchi d’Illasi “Vintage Box” offers a rich bouquet of ripe dark fruits such as black cherries, plums, and figs, along with subtle notes of spices like cinnamon, cloves, and a delicate touch of tobacco. These aromas are complemented by earthy undertones, which add to the wine’s complexity.
On the palate, this Amarone-style wine showcases a velvety texture and a balanced structure. The flavors of ripe fruit, spices, and a hint of chocolate are perfectly integrated, creating a harmonious experience. The tannins are firm yet smooth, and the acidity is well-balanced, enhancing the wine’s length and depth. The finish is long and lingering, with notes of dried fruit, sweet spices, and a touch of smokiness.
Trabucchi d’Illasi “Vintage Box” pairs wonderfully with hearty dishes such as roasted meats, braised lamb, and aged cheeses. It is also an excellent companion to rich pasta dishes and game, making it a perfect choice for a special occasion or festive celebration.
This wine is a true reflection of the expertise and dedication of the Trabucchi family in crafting exceptional Valpolicella wines.
