A fine example of Veneto winemaking, this Colli Euganei DOC reflects generations of local expertise. Its 12.5% alcohol content supports a rounded, well-integrated style. Crafted from Carménère 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. Expect layered dark fruit aromas, firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards on the west side of the Euganean Hills, on soils of limestone and clay.

A wine showing the technical precision Veneto producers are known for.
