Oseleta

About this grape variety

Casta tinta de pequena produção, redescoberta no Vêneto, a Oseleta foi salva da quase extinção no final do século XX. É hoje utilizada em pequenas percentagens em Valpolicella e Amarone, contribuindo com cor, taninos e complexidade aromática para os lotes. A casta pode também afirmar-se sozinha em monovarietais sérios.

What is Oseleta?

A small-volume, rediscovered red grape of the Veneto, Oseleta was rescued from near-extinction in the late 20th century. It is now used in small percentages in Valpolicella and Amarone, contributing colour, tannin and aromatic complexity to blends. The grape can also stand alone in serious single-variety bottlings.
