RINERO
Rosso Veneto – Indicazione Geografica Tipica
In 2000 was born in Verona the DOC Arcole, in a highly dedicated area of production, where the vine has developed in Roman times. Here, the Winemaker Emilio Bixio, thanks to the passion, the experience of the family tradition, the desire for innovation and the perfect combination of microclimate and soil, creates high-quality wines. The Rinero finds its inspiration from the Bordeaux blend vines and an ancient tradition of Verona: the "Ripasso" of the wine on the skins of another wine, in this case the Nero d'Arcole, who made drying. This second fermentation allows the wine to be enriched further in perfumes and structure, creating an extremely elegant wine.
