Le Fraghe’s 70 acres of vineyards are mostly located in the Bardolino Classico zone at about 600 feet of elevation near the small towns of Cavaion Veronese and Affi, close to where marmo rosso veronese is excavated, the red coloring of this marble being due to the high iron content of the soil here. This is the hilly, more inland and northern part of Bardolino and will soon be officially classified as being in the Montebaldo sub-zone, one of the three recently approved crus of Bardolino.
Tasting Notes from the winery -
The Le Fraghe exhibits a bouquet of cherries and blueberries, with spicy notes of clove and black pepper. The palate is plush with gentle tannins, and the palate of fruit carries through to the nose, finishing with a lovley floral and mild tobacco notes. Though not absolutrly necessary, this wine would definitely benefit from a slight chill.
