Its fruit intensity takes center stage, revealing prominent notes of ripe blackberries and plums, which are harmoniously complemented by subtle hints of spice. The tannins are noteworthy yet gentle, providing a smooth and approachable finish that invites another sip. As a dry wine, it promises a refreshing and enjoyable experience, perfect for pairing with a range of culinary delights or simply savoring on its own.

Garda

Nowhere inspires romance quite like Italy's Lake Garda. Its eastern shores merge into the beautifully terraced hillsides of Verona, where vines meet cypress, olive, cherry and citrus groves. Chardonnay is the most planted variety here, soaking in the warm Mediterranean sun and developing fine acids and aromatics in the cool Alpine air. Garganega (the grape of nearby Soave) also thrives, as does Riesling and northeast Italy's ubiquitous Pinot Grigio. Garda's famous light reds—Valpolicella and Bardolina—are made principally from the local Corvina grape. Other outstanding Garda wines include Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot.
