Papastrello, the new GHOST-branded wine, is now available in Sweden, issues Bravewords.com.

A red, powerful but well balanced wine, with perfumes of fruits and cacao and with a red colour of great intensity. The wine is perfect with roast red meat, game and aged cheeses, but is also excellent also on its own. The very typical Veronese grapes, Corvina and Rondinella, go under a natural drying process, without any alteration of the humidity and temperature level.

Afterwards the wine goes through slow fermentation and a maceration of 8-10 days, followed by a second fermentation on the residue of Amarone’s dried grapes. From this second fermentation the wine gets more powerful, higher in alcohol, more tannins and acidity. Then the wine refines in oak barrels for approximately 12 months.

Aroma: Intense scents of ripe cherry, with ample spiciness and light notes of withered flowers

Taste: Powerful, with a rich and mouth-filling structure, dense tannins and a long persistence

Colour: Intense ruby red

Said Papa Emeritus III: “They say that this wine is the blood of Christ? I would argue otherwise. It’s fermented grapes. That’s all. Very nice fermented grapes… but fruit nonetheless.”
