NEW! 2008 LE FRAGHE Bardolino $14.99 (Veneto)
We are very pleased to finally have this lovely Bardolino from winemaker and friend MATILDE POGGI at Le Fraghe. We got to know Matilde in Verona over several years of wine fairs, and when the opportunity arose, we introduced her to a Boston importer– and now her wine is finally here! A blend of corvina & rondinella grapes from the Veneto, Le Fraghe Bardolino is ruby red in color, with a rich, complex bouquet of sweet-sour cherry and blueberry, and spicy nuances of cinnamon and black pepper. The distinctive hallmark of this wine is its elegance; it displays remarkably soft tannins and beautiful balance– perfect summer red!
