Serafini & Vidotto - Montello Asolo - Phigaia After The Red 2021

The wine : Phigaia is the flagship cuvée of the Serafini & Vidotto estate. Made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, this iconic cuvée exudes an incredible purity of fruit. Refined and indulgent notes of black cherry, strawberry, and raspberry emanate from the glass and evolve gracefully on the palate... all in finesse. The aging in oak barrels here only highlights this fruit, while adding a hint of spice. The tannins are delicate and noble, allowing this great wine to be enjoyed both young and after some aging. Divine pairings with red meats and charcuterie ahead!

The estate : Founded in 1986 by Francesco Serafini and Antonello Vidotto, the eponymous 20-hectare estate quickly established itself as a benchmark in the Veneto region as well as within the Montello Asolo DOC (formerly Montello e Colli Asolani). Seduced by the beauty of the hills, the gentle wooded valleys, and the proximity of the Piave River, the two winemakers have made this land their passion, giving rise to a range of wines of superb quality that perfectly reflect the local terroir. Their approach, focused on finesse and purity, highlights the clay-iron soils of the appellation, offering wines of great elegance. Each bottle from the Serafini & Vidotto estate is a magnificent discovery and tells the story of two men driven by their love for their land.
