Grandentato from il Vigneto dei Salumi is a unique taste experience! Everything started from the observation that, while working with Vinappeso, it often happened in the early days that the artisanal laboratory in Arbizzano di Negrar had to discard the wine used in the aging of Giulietta or Isabella cured meats. But the artisan craft soon made itself felt, pushing Walter Ceradini and his collaborators to carry out new and surprising experiments using this very special mixture that many others would certainly have discarded. A mixture that is very different from the wine we are used to drinking, a rich nectar that preserves all the aromas and scents of aging, while maintaining the original aromatic and taste profile of the wine. Vino Cristallino is the product of a unique process in the world, a mixture physically composed of Amarone and Recioto but, spiritually, of knowledge, love, and madness, that is, all those ways of being that guide and inspire the work of il Vigneto dei Salumi. Grandentato presents on the nose a prevailing scent of licorice and a note of tobacco. On the palate, the initial acidity quickly gives way to savoriness and a structured smoothness. Grandentato is obtained from the processing of the lean portion of selected heavy Italian pork neck, aged first for 40-50 days in Vino Cristallino and then matured for 4-5 months in the cellar.
