2017 Dioniso Recioto della Valpolicella – Liquid Gold in Ruby Red

The Dioniso Recioto della Valpolicella DOCG from Tenute Ca' Botta is a rare treasure. While Amarone is aged dry, with Recioto, the fermentation process is stopped to preserve the natural sweetness and immense fruit concentration of the dried grapes. The result is a dessert wine of unparalleled opulence and depth.

Ca' Botta's Masterpiece

Dioniso, named after the god of wine, lives up to its name. The extremely long drying of the grapes (Appassimento) creates an essence that is produced only in small quantities. The 2017 vintage shows a perfect harmony between concentrated fruit sweetness and a fine, structure-defining acidity.

The Taste Profile:

  • Aroma: An explosive bouquet of rum-soaked cherries, dried plums, dark chocolate, and subtle hints of violets and vanilla.

  • Palate: Velvety, creamy, and incredibly dense. The sweetness is highly elegant and never sticky, supported by soft tannins and complex spice.

  • Finish: An almost endless aftertaste reminiscent of blackberry jelly and fine cocoa.

The Perfect End to a Meal:

This Recioto is the ultimate companion for sophisticated moments of indulgence:

  • Dessert: Ideal with chocolate soufflé, dark mousse variations, or panettone.

  • Cheese: A brilliant contrast to mature blue cheese (Gorgonzola piccante or Roquefort).

  • Solo: An excellent "meditation wine" that, enjoyed neat, crowns the evening.
