Rated 4.2/5.0 on Vivino
Ca dei Frati is a popular producer.
A deep and dark wine showing a vibrant, fruit-forward bouquet with aromas of ripe blueberries, freshly-made jam, a touch of balsam and some herbal notes which follow through to the palate. Savoury characters are balanced with rounded tannins and a freshness on the finish which is typical of the area.
The grapes are grown in the Dal Cero family's own vineyard, Ronchedone, which is located on the south banks of Lake Garda near the town of Sirmione. The vines for 'Ronchedone' are planted on chalky, limey and sandy clay soils, using single Guyot and cordon training. The yields are around eight tonnes per hectare.
