Tenuta Sant'Antonio - Nanfre 2023 (750ml)

Valpolicella, meaning "Valley of many Cellars," reflects the region's rich winemaking heritage, exemplified by Tenuta Sant’Antonio, founded in 1989 by the Castagnedi brothers on Italy's eastern side—an area traditionally less known for Valpolicella. Their Nanfrè, a youthful, vibrant wine made without dried grapes or oak, showcases bright red fruit, cherry, cranberry, and floral notes, emphasizing freshness and lower alcohol content, aligning with modern winemaking trends to preserve lively fruit and elegance. This wine, named after a local hamlet and original vineyard owner Gianfranco, offers a soft, fragrant palate with moderate tannins, capturing the essence of springtime in a glass and highlighting the innovative spirit of producers expanding beyond the historic western zones of Valpolicella.
