Tasting note
Deep ruby red with garnet hues, this wine opens with aromas of ripe red fruits such as black cherry and blackberry, complemented by subtle hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, a fine balance between acidity and savoury minerality creates a dry, smooth and persistent finish.

The producer
Canoso
Monteforte d’Alpone · Soave, VenetoFounded 187615 ha of vineyardcanoso.it
The Meneghello Canoso family has grown grapes on the volcanic hills of Monteforte d'Alpone since 1876, selling wine in bulk until the first bottling in 1990 from the 'Ca' del Vento' vineyard. In 2016 entrepreneur Giovanni Bartucci joined the family and rebuilt the brand with a young team, and in 2024 the Soave Classico Superiore 'Verso' earned the estate its first Tre Bicchieri.
