RABOSO DEL PIAVE D.O.C. PIAVE
The jewel in the king’s crown: the Raboso D.O.C. Piave is our most intense red – the grave and deep tone in the choir of our wines. Processed using the traditional method and then aged for 24 months, at least 12 of which in oak barrels and a minimum of 3 in a bottle, the Raboso achieves a perfect level of maturation, emerging from its firm and sapid aroma, like black velvet. Once its shadowy and indomitable character is understood, Raboso knows how to win one’s love like no one else.
‘Of a color blacker of the pitch’: with these words Pliny the Elder described a wine produced in North-East Italy since time immemorial. We know for sure that Raboso, an indigenous vine variety from the orient of the Veneto region, has very ancient origins. Resistant to deterioration thanks to its robust and tannin character, it has travelled extensively on land and by sea, on board the ships of the most serene Republic of Venice.
Today, Raboso is considered one of the most excellent varieties of red wine in the Piave region, as well as throughout the entirety of Italy. With obstinacy and character, Raboso is rooted in our lands. We proudly pass on its heritage and tradition, transforming a tough but generous vine into three different labels, rich in different shades and hints.
Color: intense ruby red with nocturnal depth and garnet tinges
Aroma: vinous with an overtone of morello cherry
Palate: full-bodied, slightly tannic, morello cherry-flavored with aroma of wild berries
