Notes on the Wine
Characteristic aromas of Sauvignon on the nose with delicate hints of pears. Medium weight with good structure; well-balanced, refreshing, and very drinkable.
Notes on the Producer
Dante Alighieri spent several years of his exile in Verona. His son, Pietro, came to love the beauty of the city and its countryside, and so decided to remain in the area, purchasing the Casal dei Ronchi in Gargagnago estate (possessione) in the heart of the historic Valpolicella region in 1353. Twenty-one generations later, both house and estate still belong to Dante's direct descendants, the Counts Serego Alighieri. Today, the Villa stands surrounded by Valpolicella vineyards, the centre of traditional farming activities associated with a large and flourishing estate with the nearby Foresteria providing accommodation for guests.
