Wine “I Castelli Romeo e Giulietta” Cabernet Sauvignon, Trevenezie IGT

Description

The wines “I Castelli Romeo e Giulietta” are as beautiful as the love story of Romeo and Juliet. Their homeland is the land of Venice. In the distant 1530, they became a haven for writer Luigi da Porto, who lives in a villa in Montorso Vicentino, next to two castles – the families of Montague and Capulets. It was he who wrote the novel “La Giulietta”, on the basis of which later Shakespeare created his masterpiece. Historians say that Luigi da Porto was inspired by the ruins of medieval castles, standing on a hill nearby, which the author saw from his window. Today, the ruins are called “Castles Romeo and Juliet” (“I Castelli Romeo e Giulietta”).
The line “And Castelli Romeo e Juliet” includes a wide range of wines from grapes grown in the Veneto region. Manufacture of drinks is made on modern equipment, and vineyards are located in ecologically clean regions with favorable soil and climatic conditions.

“I Castelli Romeo e Giulietta” Bardolino is a bright, fresh, intense fruit wine made from the classic blend of Rondinella, Molinara and Corvinas for the Bardolino zone. The wine is very gastronomic, it will warm on a winter day and refresh on summer evenings.
