The Right Match - The Arena of Verona

The Arena di Verona's “Il Giusto abbinamento” (The Right Match) Taste Page describes the Nepomuceno wine of Azienda Agricola Cantrina, here are the most important points: (...) Having a high fat content, you need an important wine. Oh, God, every rule has its exceptions (and in this case we suggest a well-structured white for offenders), but personally we prefer a mature, harmonious red wine with good structure. Since every like loves its like, if the tripe is Florentine, accompany it with a Tuscan wine, Chianti Docg; Barco Reale Carmignano Doc; excellent Pinot Noir Villa Bagnolo by Marchesi Pancrazi and Birbone by Fattoria Barbi di Montalcino. (...) (...) The Busecca Milanese goes well with an Oltrepò Pavese sangue di Giuda and, to top it all off, one of the best Merlots in Italy, NEPOMUCENO 2001 from Cantrina di Bedizzole in the province of Brescia.

Cantrina is a tiny rural hamlet in the municipality of Bedizzole, in the Brescia hinterland of Lake Garda. But it is also the name of the beautiful winery of Cristina Inganni and Diego Lavo, founded in 1999. (...) The range of labels offered by the Cantrina company has naturalness, integrity and respect for the land as its common thread.

The name of the winery is borrowed from “a tiny rural village of Valtènesi located in the municipality of Bedizzole, in the Brescia hinterland of Lake Garda in Lombardy”. In fact, it is in Cantrina that Cristina Inganni and Diego Lavo live and work, the founders of this small, strictly family-run company with just under 8 hectares of land to cultivate ’on the hills of morainic origin in three different plots for a total of 45 thousand vine stocks“.

In particular, this one from Cantrina winery, a company from Bedizzole (BS), is a very simple pink, as if just blooming, very faint, a watercoloured carmine. It somehow announces the barely suffused scents of small, ripening red fruits, slow notes of fresh flowers and embraces some very evanescent scents that briefly touch me. This is a pink Valtènesi, made only from Groppello grapes.
