The Superiore Riviera del Garda Classico DOC wine from the Avanzi winery represents an excellence of the Brescia territory, reflecting the uniqueness and winemaking tradition of the Lake Garda area. This wine is the result of a careful selection of Groppello, Marzemino, Sangiovese, and Barbera grapes, which give the final product extraordinary complexity and distinctive character.
In terms of color, the Superiore Riviera del Garda Classico showcases an intense ruby red shade, hinting at its richness from the outset. On the nose, vibrant notes of ripe red fruits such as cherry and raspberry immediately emerge, delicately integrated with spicy undertones and a light touch of vanilla, due to the maturation period in barriques.
On the palate, the wine demonstrates an elegant and well-balanced structure, with fine tannins that accompany a pleasant acidic freshness. The flavor persistence is remarkable, leaving a pleasantly fruity and slightly spicy aftertaste that invites another sip.
Ideally served at a temperature of 16-18°C, the Superiore Riviera del Garda Classico DOC pairs perfectly with grilled red meats, roasts, and aged cheeses. It is also an excellent choice to accompany a special evening or an important event, thanks to its refined and versatile character.
The Avanzi winery, renowned for its dedication to quality and attention to detail, carefully oversees every stage of the production process, from the manual harvesting of the grapes to the aging in the cellar, thus ensuring a high-quality product that best expresses the potential of the terroir.
