Expert opinion
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Domain rated Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate)
About the domain :
It's not so often that I visit a Veneto estate that offers this level of quality for an excessively honest price in today's market. Readers of the Wine Advocate should give these wines serious consideration.
