ABOUT THIS WINE
El Marascar Rosato Veronese is a rosé wine from the Veneto region of Italy, specifically from the Valpolicella Classica area in the Marano valley. Produced by Le Marognole, a family winery founded in 2004, the wine is made primarily from Corvina grapes, with a smaller percentage of Rondinella. The estate's vineyards are situated on terraced hillsides, a landscape marked by traditional dry stone walls known as 'marogne.' The wine's name, 'El Marascar,' is inspired by marasca cherries and the visual characteristic of its 'onion skin' color. Le Marognole's winemaking philosophy emphasizes traditional methods and a close connection to the land, with the founder, Fabio Corsi, actively involved in all stages of production.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The production of El Marascar Rosato Veronese begins with hand-selected grapes, where manual thinning of bunches and careful harvesting are employed. The grapes undergo a soft and delicate pressing, with the skins immediately separated from the must. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperatures. Following fermentation, the wine is aged in stainless steel tanks, a process designed to preserve its inherent freshness and aromatic profile.
