It was Giovanni Cossetti who, in 1891, decided to convert his family farm into a wine-producing estate. Now in its fourth generation as a wine producer, thee Cossetti family continues to marry tradition and innovation to produce the best possible wines from local varieties.
A very pale thing in the glass, this: an encouraging lemon-and-lime hue. Aromas relate to summer meadows, possibly alpine and meadows near orchards at that. Lovely scents of fresh flowers combine with ripe apple aromas to welcome the drinker. The palate is a slightly restless combination of superbly juicy acidity and the compact fruit, slightly aloof. It's a wonderfully light drink, but has huge reserves of energy and vim. Structure offers a clay-like grip in this dry, lively mouthful. This could do with some food, but oh boy, what a delightful drink, perfect for summer tippling. Bowes Wine original note
All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab.
Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
