Ca’ del Bosco – Maurizio Zanella is one of the winery’s most prestigious red wines and is named after the founder himself. The wine is made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc from Ca’ del Bosco’s best vineyards. The grapes are hand-picked and placed in small boxes, where they are sorted and cooled. The bunches are thinned before going through the exclusive “berry spa”, i.e. a special washing and with three soaking tanks and a drying system. Shortly afterwards, the bunches are transported to the maceration tank to be destemmed. Alcoholic fermentation and maceration take 21 days with careful control of the temperature. The wine is mixed with gravity pumping daily to extract color and tannins. The wine is then poured into small barrels, 70% of which are new oak barrels. Only after the malolactic fermentation, in the middle of winter, are the different wines blended together to form the final product and then aged in oak barrels for approx. 12 months. The bottling systems doesn’t require addition of sulphites.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
