About this wine

Neropasso Veneto Rosso is a full, smooth red made in an approachable appassimento-inspired style, with part of the grapes dried to build concentration. Corvina and Corvinone bring cherry fruit and character, while Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon add roundness, dark fruit and structure. Expect ripe flavours, a gently sweet-fruited impression, lively acidity and supple tannins; the exact balance may vary by vintage.
