Azienda Vinicola Prà, Passito delle Fontane 2021

Azienda Vinicola Prà’s Passito delle Fontane 2021 is an elegant Italian dessert wine, distinguished by its luminous golden colour, concentrated fruit and remarkable balance. Crafted under the direction of Graziano Prà, whose family has shaped his winemaking vocation for generations, it reflects the estate’s philosophy of purity, respect for the land and a focus on expressive fruit.

Tasting Notes
The wine has a beautiful golden appearance. Its complex, inviting bouquet combines apricot jam, ripe peach, honey, candied yellow citrus and dried fruit. On the palate, it is full-bodied and richly flavoured, with a well-judged balance between sweetness and freshness. The finish is persistent and refined, making this a particularly graceful expression of passito. Its precise aging potential is not specified, but the wine’s concentration and balance suggest that it may develop additional complexity with careful cellaring.

Production
The available information does not specify the exact vineyard site, grape variety or harvesting method for Passito delle Fontane. At the winery, the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed to preserve their delicate aromas. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 13°C, after which the wine continues to mature in stainless-steel tanks, helping to retain its freshness and purity of fruit.

Food & Serving
Serve Passito delle Fontane with mature cheeses, especially blue cheeses, where its sweetness and rich fruit provide a harmonious contrast to the cheeses’ saltiness and intensity. It is also well suited to fruit-based desserts and pâtisserie. Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C. Decanting is generally unnecessary; simply open shortly before serving to allow the aromas to unfold.

Producer
Graziano Prà has been involved with Azienda Vinicola Prà since the early 1980s, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather. Through his work, vineyards such as Monte Grande and Monte Bisson in Soave and Morandina in Valpolicella have earned international recognition as small, highly regarded crus in important wine regions. His winemaking is guided by respect for the soil and a pursuit of purity, with a preference for cellar practices that allow the fruit to take centre stage.
