- TASTING NOTE: Cherry red with rich purple highlights, Ròdon boasts a complex mosaic of well-defined, very fragrant aromas. Seductive notes of wild rose are the first to emerge, followed by nuances of wild strawberry and redcurrant that linger and complete an elegant bouquet. The palate displays an emphatic crispness and full body, the happy result of a perfect balance between ultra-savoury flavours and a tasty minerality, characteristics that are classic to this terroir, and excellent supporting tannins and acidity. The finish is notably lengthy, and nicely mirrors the aromas offered by the nose. Le Fraghe
- ABOUT THE WINE: The two grape varieties, Corvina and Rondinella, are vinified separately. They are given a cool-temperature, 6-8 hour maceration on the skins, which extracts just enough colour to give a lively, medium-bodied hue to the juice. The must then ferments at a cool 17°C. The finished wine matures on the fine lees in 50hl stainless steel tanks until the following spring, when it is bottled.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Le Fraghe is owned and operated by the talented and very energetic Matilde Poggi. Her commitment to quality shows through not only across the range of Le Fraghe wines but somehow Matilde finds the time to fill the role as President of the Italian Federation of Independent Vine growers. Le Fraghe has been a consistent ‘tre bicchieri’ winner over the past three years, one of only two from Bardolino in the current edition of the Italian wine guide. Gambero Rosso. Dave Mullen Wines
