## About this wine

The Marco Mosconi Corvina Rosso 2022 is a 100% Corvina from the Veneto IGT, produced by Azienda Agricola Marco Mosconi in the Val d'Illasi. This family winery, now in its third generation, is dedicated to natural winemaking principles. Marco Mosconi, with a background in music, applies an artistic and intuitive approach to his winemaking, focusing on harmony with nature and minimal intervention. The vineyards are situated at elevations between 140-250 meters on alluvial and calcareous marl soils, contributing to the wine's distinct character.

## Interesting facts

- Winemaker Marco Mosconi was trained as a musician.
- The winery emphasizes a 'zero-zero' philosophy for some wines (no added sulfur, unfined, unfiltered).
- Vineyards are farmed using organic practices.
- The estate is described as an 'eco-conscious hub of soulful wines'.

## Food pairing

The wine's medium-light body and bright acidity make it a versatile food companion. Its clean, dry finish and friendly tannins complement savory dishes without overpowering them. The wine's natural character pairs well with dishes that are not overly complex, allowing the food and wine to enhance each other.

## Wine making process

The Marco Mosconi Corvina Rosso 2022 is produced using organic farming practices. The winemaking process emphasizes minimal intervention, with carefully selected and gently pressed grapes. Fermentation occurs spontaneously in stainless steel tanks using indigenous yeasts. After fermentation, the wine is aged for six months in cement tanks. It is bottled unfiltered and unclarified, reflecting the producer's philosophy of preserving the natural character of the fruit.
