{"product_id":"esotico-rose","title":"Sassara Esotico Rose","description":"\u003cp\u003eSituated just outside Verona, in the Morainic Hills near Lake Garda, Vini Sassara is a new project from longtime natural winemakers Alessia and Stefano Bertaiola. With a background in agricultural research and development, Alessia joined forces with third-generation winemaker Stefano more than a decade ago and together they farm a 10-hectare site that has been in Stefano’s family for 50 years. They took over the property in 2007, and with Alessia's strong background in agricultural research and development, quickly converted each plot to biodynamic farming. This is Bardolino country, a DOC in the Veneto region most famous for its Valpolicella-style light reds and rosé wines. But being natural winemakers, Alessia and Stefano are less concerned with what conventional winemakers are doing in the area and instead have set out to show what the indigenous grapes and Bardolino terroir are capable of when allowed to express themselves naturally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIs it red? Is it pink? Is it orange? Who cares?! 30% red grapes (Corvina, Rossanella, Rondinella, Molinara) and 70% white grapes (Fernanda, Moscato, Trebbianello, Trebbiano, Garganega, Tocai), all from old vines. Hand harvested and spontaneously co-fermented with 10 days of skin maceration and without temperature control. Aged in stainless steel. No filtering or fining and no added sulfur.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vine Arts","offers":[{"title":"45083058929976","offer_id":48772252827960,"sku":"104627","price":33.94,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/8739\/2312\/files\/10909876-Sassara_Esotico_Rose.jpg?v=1717275380","url":"https:\/\/vinearts.ca\/products\/esotico-rose","provider":"Vine Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
