Cà dei Frati ‘Ronchedone’
£30.00
The Dal Cero family has transformed their Cà dei Frati property into a model Italian estate over the past two decades.
Back in 1987, they had 12 hectares of vineyard but now, following the purchase of a large chunk of prime vineyard in 2008, they have over 100. This increase in quantity has been matched by an increase in quality, and today they remain the best producers in Lugana.
Marzemino, an indigenous varietal grown mostly in northern Italy, plus Sangiovese are the main grapes for Ronchedone, together with a maximum of 10% of Cabernet Sauvignon.
This is a deep, dark wine showing a vibrant, fruit-forward bouquet with aromas of ripe blueberries, freshly made jam, a touch of balsam and some herbal notes which follow through to the rounded, red and black fruit palate.
The clean, savoury character is balanced with rounded tannins and a freshness on the finish which is typical of the area.
