LCBO Text Status
Antiche Terre Venete translates as \"ancient Venetian lands,\" which makes sense for a 100-year-old winery in a 3,000- year-old wine region. This is an excellent value in Ripasso, a wine style that uses dried grapes in its alchemy to add extra texture, depth and complexity. Pour this one with Asiago-and-mushroom risotto or bitter dark chocolate. Price $ 16.95
