Marani Bianco Verona IGT
MARANI Bianco captivates from the very first glass with its intense golden color and aromas of exotic fruits and honey, the result of careful vinification in oak barrels and on the lees. Made from old Garganega vines east of Verona, it is an elegant and balanced white that pairs perfectly with creamy pasta dishes, white meats, and semi-aged cheeses. A wine with an Italian soul, perfect for special occasions.
Vineyard Characteristics
The vineyards, located east of Verona, benefit from a south/southwest exposure and predominantly calcareous-volcanic soil. Preference is given to old vines trained using the pergola system, especially for Garganega.
Winemaking Characteristics
The grapes are harvested and sorted by hand. Depending on the vintage, some of the grapes may be left to overripen in the fruttaio (well-ventilated drying rooms) to enhance the concentration of aromas and structure. Once the fresh grapes have also been harvested, they are destemmed and crushed, followed by a brief cold maceration with the skins. At the end of fermentation, 50% of the wine ages for several months in tanks on its fine lees, while the other 50% matures in large oak barrels. After bottling, the wine rests in the bottle for at least 6 months.
Tasting Notes
Intense golden color; on the nose, it reveals aromas of yellow and exotic fruits with an unmistakable hint of honey. On the palate, the wine is balanced, elegant, and harmonious, perfectly in tune with the bouquet.
Pairing
First courses with creamy sauces, such as pasta or risotto. Excellent with white meats, grilled seafood, and medium-aged cheeses.
