Territory and wine style
This Veneto IGT takes shape on the first hills of Negrar, in a context that enhances the identity of the territory and the tradition of the winery.

The choice of selected grapes and the drying process until the following January further enrich structure and complexity, giving life to an important, expressive red wine with great personality.
