In the area where the first moraine hills rise, red wines of considerable depth and power are also obtained, and Ronchedone is an absolute demonstration of this. Strongly desired from the moment it was felt that certain areas and certain microclimates were suitable for making a wine like this. Marzemino, Sangiovese and 10% Cabernet make it a wine that cannot go unnoticed. The nose is very rich with notes of red fruits, macerated blueberries, marasca cherries under spirits, balsamic and jammy hints. The palate is powerful and incisive, clean, savoury, with a fine acidity that is a sign of the Benaco soil. Ideal with red meats with medium and long cooking, game birds and fur, mature cheeses, rich pastas and soups with meat.
