Climate trend: Still a very dry winter, temperatures never
excessively cold. First hail on 25 April. The rains
begin from the second week of May and are very manifest
frequent and intense, difficult treatments with these rains and with high
temperatures, the result is a major infection of mildew
quite generalized. The weather stabilizes towards the end of June and
the very high temperatures that make the vineyards suffer. Strong the
more violent. On July 24 another hail storm hits the
on our area and puts in further crisis plants, but at least
strengthened by rain. Other strong thunderstorm on 14 August, with
moderate hail, then it doesn’t rain again until the end of October,
ensuring at least a good dry harvest and the little
remained grapes is healthy and in excellent condition. Difficult vintage, as the last
5, but good quality final.Winemaking technique: Fermentation in steel. Periodic reassembling. Stripping. Malolactic fermentation. Transfer to cement. Maturation period 6 months.

Musella’s Wines
Our wines follow an ambitious project, not only because biodynamic, but because we believe that now is the time for the Valpolicella to further exploit its territorial potential, free from market constraints in order to better express all their innate class in purity and taste.
The elegance inherent in traditional varieties is thus considered by us the conceptual center of our wines, the true revelation of a rich and unique nuances and complexities territory, often enhanced with the right depth in the most commercial wines, thus confusing the public perception .
Cherry bark and spice blend in the typical pleasure of Valpolicella wines and find in Musella a sincere interpretation balance, which goes straight to the heart.
