Foradori Sgarzon Teroldego 2022
Through years of biodynamic farming and observation, Foradori have been able to emphasize the character of each plot of land across their estate. Two separate vinifications of two Teroldego vineyards results in Morei and Sgarzon.
“Sgarzon” literally means shoot in the Campo Rotaliano. The vines that grow in the Sgarzon
vineyard are particularly active and benefit from the cooler climate that characterizes this site. Teroldego's character changes, it is enriched with an unusual freshness. Fermented on skins for 8 months in Spanish Tinajas from Villarrobledo, the clay vessel protects and preserves the intensity of the grape.
“The thirst killer of the year. Aaaah may the God’s of Shade cover this parcel for eternity and may the Sirens of the Sands move its roots freely until the end of Time. Sgarzon is sharp. It might not be as deep as the depths of Mordor, but its open like the sails of Ulysses on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It gracefully pops around the mouth in elegant silk, quinine shooting up from underneath your tongue from time to time. Saliva running for the next sip. Personal favourite.” - Theo Zierock, Azienda Agricola Foradori
