Lungolago is Viandante del Cielo’s white, a blend of Chardonnay with the native variety of Grechetto, producing a complex white that can evolve in the bottle for years. Named Lungolago, or ‘lakeside’, in honour of the body of water that has so much influence on the life and health of the vines, Lungolago has a delicate nose of white peach and hints of pineapple. A spicy and savoury character with distinctive fennel and peppermint from the Grechetto, the lively acidity and the wet-stones minerali

Viandante is the boldest creation of Viandante del Cielo, a wine of structure and poise modelled on the great vintages of Bordeaux, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with an important Merlot supporting act.

The Le Pergolette is made exclusively from the local speciality, Garganega. Tenute Ca ’Botta go to great lengths to extract as much flavour as they can so give the grapes an extra-long maceration and a long, slow fermentation. The result is a wine that has all of Garganega’s freshness and vitality but with greater body, richness and intensity.  This is a fine example of what this excellent variety can do in the right hands. Taste Golden in colour, it exudes aromas of ripe peaches, and red apples

96 Points - Luca Maroni. This is a modern take on a classic Amarone. Made using the appassimento method with semi-dried grapes in Tenute Ca’s patented Fermentino Ca'Botta tank to give even greater richness and body.  This opulent, heady wine is aged in 225-litre French oak barrels and allowed to rest in the bottle before release.  This is Tenute Ca’s signature wine, one that is a must-try for lovers of powerful reds.
