Tasting Notes

This wine is inspired by the appassimento process used to produce the famous Amarone della Valpolicella. Because of the unusual production methods (for Cabernet Sauvignon anyway) this wine is somewhat different than Cabernet from California or Chile. Appassimento (the drying of grapes for about 40 days prior to pressing) gives the wine a concentrated, uniquely Veronese signature. Following the pressing of the dried grapes, fermentation takes place in French oak barrels where the wine remains for 6 months and spends an additional 6 to 8 months in bottle before release.

Sognum displays an intense ruby colour with medium bodied structure and fine, silky tannins. The bouquet delivers an intense aroma of purple plum, black cherry, coffee, cedar and a distinct earthy note. Those characteristics continue on the palate finishing with a touch of vanilla, spice and leather. 4.7 g/l rs, 13.5% alc
