The Wine The Wine
Italy
Region:Veneto
Morandina is a blend of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and once harvested, by hand of course, they are dried in a fruttaio (drying room), fermented and then matured for 18 months in oak casks before bottling. The finished wine combines black cherry fruit purity with alpine herbs, spice and silky smooth tannins. The best word to describe this wine is - elegance.

Graziano Pra
The Winemaker
Graziano Pra is a name synonymous with some of the best Soave, if not THE best Soave, Italy has to offer. His estate can be located in the commune of Monteforte D'Alpone in the very heart of the Soave Classico district. Graziano fulfilled a lifelong ambition in 2000 when he purchased a small vineyard in the east of Valpolicella, and my word did he choose well! He chose a site located at 450m altitude planted on poor quality steep glacial marl slopes that yield a meagre quantity of richly concentrated grapes.
"The wine has an intense ruby red colour with tints of violet. On the nose, aromas of fresh black cherries, spices and sweet vanilla are particularly prominent. On the palate, the wine is flavoursome with good acidity, the palate is filled with the taste of cherries and plum jam as well as black pepper and rhubarb. Ideal with red meat and pasta based dishes with spicy meat sauces." Graziano Pra, Winemaker.
