Product notes

MAI DIRE MAI is born out of the coming together of the time-honoured experience of the Pasqua family and the exceptional terroir of the Montevegro vineyard: the 23hectare vineyard is situated on the top of a hill at an altitude of 350 metres between Val d’Illasi and Val di Mezzane, the soil of which is basalt and calcareous in origin, ensuring an optimal mineral content. An iconic line characterised by its elegance, complexity and unique palate.

Production notes

A year characterized by a winter with abundant snowfalls which allowed an excellent water supply of the soil, favouring a regular and early development of the vegetative cycle. The grapes are hand picked with careful selection. Following gentle pressing, fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures between 20-22°C.

Tasting notes

This is a wine to be discover that reveals itself gradually; austere on the first sip but then all its power and personality comes to the fore. Intense and complex, elegant and ethereal. On the nose, it offers overtones of tobacco, cedar wood, underbrush and balsamic notes. On the palate, it is warm and intense with morello cherry, clove and coffee aromas, very fine and rounded tannins. Decisive, with high acidity and a long, enduring finish with spicy notes.
