Passito - Benaco Bresciano I.G.P.
Sweet and dessert wines have always been part of the tradition of wine-making around Lake Garda. Soldoré Passito originates from our best grapes which are carefully selected and harvested by hand. They are then laid in small crates and left to dry naturally in our purpose built storerooms. When the grapes are ready, they are soft-pressed and the must is fermented and aged in French oak barriques for a number of months.

Nose
Yellow peach and smooth dehydrated apricot – in the glass it leaves space for lavender and broom – oxidating the secondary bouquet of aromas of boiled sweets and marzipan with light touches of spun sugar and puffed rice.

Soft with a perfect equilibrium and the acid component fresh and tart with hints of Kaiser pear and arbutus honey.
