Riviera del Garda Classico Groppello

La Meridiana

With its red ruby color, and a strong wine perfume, this is a lively jewel very pleasant to be drunk. Groppello is a wonderful young red wine and it reflects the most typical features of the grape from which it is named. It creates a winey, fruity and tasty flavor, with a slight bitter aftertaste. It is gentle, distinctive and at its best consumed young.

Nowadays the cousins Fabio and Roberto, and the wife Katia manage the winery: nevertheless they are always assisted by their fathers Augusto and Fulvio, that have more than half a century of experience in this field. Thanks to the 10 hectares of vineyard that they personally grow in Valtenesi and in Lugana, they produce the classic Garda wines. Moreover their running system is environmentally friendly, in fact part of the farm is managed through organic agriculture and the rest by means of low environmental impact techniques."
