The Bagoss, the Heretic and the Hamburger - Paperogiallo.net

Stefano Bonilli in his blog recounts a dinner at Villa Fiordaliso where he tasted Eretico: here are the most important points: (...) The other evening at dinner by the lake, a warm and pleasant evening, so much so that we were eating outside, some Bagoss and a bottle of Eretico from the Cantrina winery arrived on the table. It is a pinot noir raisin wine... ugh, a pinot noir raisin wine? But yes, a wine, pinot noir, which certainly doesn't have the image of a raisin wine and which makes a great impression because you expect it to be sweet, but instead... it has residual sugar, no doubt about it, but it is really a great wine-wine with a dark violet colour that will be even better as it matures.

Cristina carries it on today together with Diego Lavo, her partner and second husband. Their Riviera del Garda Classico Groppello DOC (13 €) is a wine that enhances the terroir: gentle and sinuous, it is also appreciated with fish. In summer it becomes a cool aperitif.
