The Recioto of the late, great Giuseppe Quintarelli was indeed a labor of love. A rich dessert wine, similar to Port ( but not fortified), Recioto has been a revered classic through the ages. Complex, interwoven notes of dried fruit, sultanas, sweet baking spices, open in to musky leather and bitter chocolate on a silky palate. Decant and serve with a light chill with aged, melting cheeses, heavy braises or with dark chocolate cake. Quintarelli's Recioto is a mixed Corvina based recipe with Rodinella, Molinara, Negrara, Cabernet Sauvignon, Croatina, Sangiovese, Nebbiolo and Pelara in the mix.
