Production
The grapes for Coste Carezzi are harvested in the Puglia region, located in the heel of Italy’s boot. Coste Carezzi bears the designation Da uve con leggero Appassimento. Leggero Appassimento means that part of the wine is made from grapes that have been left to dry partially in temperature-controlled rooms for several months after harvest. This method is also well-known from highly valued wines such as Amarone and Ripasso, both originating from Valpolicella in Veneto. The grapes dry until an optimal balance of liquid and sugar is achieved. During this process, the grapes lose about one-third of their natural water content, resulting in grapes with an intense concentration of flavor, character, and richness.
