Serafini & Vidotto - Montello e Colli Asolani - Il rosso dell'Abazia 2017

Key words: Roundness / Power / Elegance

Wine: Il rosso dell'Abazia is a sublime red wine from Veneto transporting us immediately to Italy. A great smoothness is perceived in the mouth thanks to a velvety texture and silky tannins as desired. The aromatics are particularly warm, evolving into aromas of black fruits (morello cherry, blackberry), sweet spices ( vanilla, cinnamon) as well as pepper and eucalyptus. The whole is particularly charming and expresses power in measure. "Fuoriclasse" (outstanding) as our Italian friends say!

The Estate: Francesco Serafini and Antonello Vidotto founded the 20-hectare estate in their names in 1986. At that time, few vineyards existed in this very young DOC of Montello e Colli Asolani, located northwest of the city of Treviso in Veneto. However, they fell in love with the valley, the hills as well as the woods and banks of the Piave river. The passion of the two men for their region is certainly transmitted in their wines, where the search for finesse and purity magnifies their clay-ferrous terroir.
