2007 Bardolino Classico DOC Vigna Morlongo

Typically smooth and fruity red wine from a blend of grapes produced in the old Bardolino zone to the south-east of Lake Garda.

Tasting Notes
Light, fruit driven nose expressing typically Veronese characteristics of strawberries and red cherries. The palate is light bodied, fresh and attractive with ripe red fruits, little tannin and a supporting acidity that is balancing and at the same time refreshing.

Matching
Will accompany most meals, particularly Mediterranean dishes and white meats.
