When you are feeling a little edgier, naughtier and adventurous…reach for SONOROSO DARK, a robust expression of Northern Italy where grapes are enriched with deep colors, fruity aromas and a full body. Step over to the DARK side, your first sip will make you glad you did.
The winemaking is conducted with fermentation at a controlled temperature of 82 degrees F for 10 days, with selected yeasts. Here the deep color is extracted. At the end of fermentation, aging begins in medium-sized oak barrels for 6 months.
Sonoroso Dark comes from a selection of Teroldego Rotaliano and Merlot grapes that have high sugar content and are rich in color.
The red currant, blackberry and blueberry of Teroldego emerges on the nose. From Merlot there is a beautiful aromatic profile with notes of vanilla and jam.

“Thanks to the characteristics and potential of the vineyards at Quinta do Seixo, it was possible to cut through the strong maturations of this year's harvest. As a result, we produced very balanced and robust wines, with aromatic notes typical of more mature years.” - Luís Sottomayor, head of Sogrape's winemaking
