WINE DESCRIPTION
Guerrieri Rizzardi Rosso Veronese Clos Roareti, with its inaugural vintage in 2006, emanates from our vineyards in Negrar di Valpolicella. The Merlot vines, planted since the late '90s, thrive in the region's clay-rich soil and climate, yielding a wine rich, full-bodied, and complex, typical of Merlot. On the nose and palate, one encounters pronounced woody notes, deviating from the lighter style of Veneto Merlots. With aging potential of up to 10 years, Clos Roareti promises to mature gracefully, evolving in character and depth over time.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
On the nose, this wine offers a captivating bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, accompanied by subtle hints of spice and earthiness.The aromas are well-integrated and provide a sense of depth and complexity.
Upon tasting, the Guerrieri Rizzardi Rosso Veronese Clos Roareti reveals a harmonious balance between its fruit-forward character and its refined structure. The palate is greeted with luscious flavors of red berries, complemented by notes of vanilla and a touch of oak. The wine's velvety tannins add a pleasant texture and contribute to its elegance.
