From the slopes of the Grola hills in the heart of the classic Valpolicella region, we bring you a new wine, ZANE (tsar-nay). This wine is born of the time-honoured blend of corvina, corvinone and rondinella grapes using the traditional method of refermenting or "ripasso" with Amarone. ZANE has a delicate flavour of red berry fruits with a hint of spices on the nose.
It has a soft and well-rounded finish on the palate which makes it the ideal accompaniment to casseroles and red meat dishes.
