TASTING NOTE: This winery is owned by a family that's been making wine for over two centuries. The wine itself is a blend of Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara that's aged in oak for a year. Look for notions of violets, ripe blackberry and licorice with a touch of bitter cocoa, and sip alongside roasted raddichio with pancetta, ricotta and dates. |
