Summary

This blended red wine DOC in North East Italy, covers a large expanded area, with grapes primarily sourced from the southern flatter plains. Deep and warm rocky sandy soils contribute to high yields and therefore lower fruit concentration. These are fresh and fruity wines made for early consumption. Wines are Corvina Veronese / Corvinone based.
