Soms kom je in Italië wijnen tegen van topkwaliteit, maar met een lage kwalificatie. De Cà dei Frati Ronchedone Vino Rosso is er zo eentje. Een wijn met slechts de classificatie ‘Vino Rosso’, simpelweg omdat de DOC Lugana niet voorziet in rode wijnen. Een bewijs dat niet het gebied, maar juist de producent er toe doet. De wijngaarden van dit wijnhuis liggen in de beste delen van Lugana in Lombardije.

Cà dei Frati Ronchedone Vino Rosso, topwijn zonder kwaliteitslabel

In het glas heeft de wijn een verbazingwekkende donkere intense kleur: diep paars met een schakering van blauw. De wijn komt royaal en intens in de neus met veel kersen, bosbessen en cassis. Ook ruik je duidelijk wat ceder van de cabernet sauvignon.

Plenty of flavor from crisp black fruit such as amarena cherry and some undergrowth. A refined, almost Languedoc-style wine, but with a beautiful Italian guise. We also find it bears a slight resemblance to the much more expensive Amarones from Valpolicella. A wonderfully sultry, intense wine with pleasant acidity and a beautiful balance. Concentrated yet supple due to soft and moderately present tannins. A long finish due to high flavor intensity. Clear oak influence on the nose as the wine has matured in French oak.

Azienda Agricola Cá Dei Frati
Ca’ dei Frati can be traced back to the year 1782, where a document refers to a house with a wine cellar on the land of Sermion, with the name ‘house of the brothers’ (dei Frati).

They own 20 hectares of vineyards with a wide variety of different terroirs. The subsoil consists largely of loam with a high content of lime and mineral salts. Due to the presence of abundant gravel, the soil has good drainage. This ensures that the grapes can ripen optimally. Also of great importance is the Pelér wind, which blows across Lake Garda. It causes large temperature fluctuations in a short time that benefit the aromas in the wine. Lake Garda, in turn, also acts as a regulator against excessive differences between the seasons. In short, a spot with a delightful (almost) Mediterranean microclimate.
