After destemming, fermentation takes place in steel using the \u003cstrong\u003eGanimede method\u003c\/strong\u003e, a system that involves continuous mixing of the skins with the must to extract colour and noble tannins. Ageing lasts twelve months, spent between steel tanks and \u003cstrong\u003ewooden barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, which lend softness to the wine’s texture. Served between 16 and 18 degrees, it pairs perfectly with \u003cstrong\u003ered meats and game\u003c\/strong\u003e, mature cheeses and flavourful first courses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginating from Monteforte d’Alpone, Riondo Corvina Veronese IGT 2021 embodies authentic Venetian tradition.
