Montello e Colli Asolani DOC 'Phigaia' 2018 (750 ml.) - Serafini e Vidotto
'Phigaia' by Serafini & Vidotto is a Bordeaux-style red that comes from a blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon produced in the DOC Montello-Colli Asolani area north-west of Treviso in optimal hydrogeological conditions. It ages in wood for a period ranging from 13 to 18 months and, finally, it rests in the bottle for a further 2 years. The attack in the mouth is excellent and convincing with fresh and fruity notes, round tannins and great elegance that complement the softness on a sapid base and balanced alcohol content; long spicy finish with notes of licorice.

THE COMPANY
In the DOC area Montello and Colli Asolani there is a small winery that has been considered the best interpreter of Cabernet in the North East of Italy for more than twenty years.
That of Serafini & Vidotto in Nervesa della Battaglia, in the heart of Gioiosa Marca Trevigiana, is a story of passion and respect. Passion for the land and for the wine made by two friends, skilled winemakers, experimenters, pioneers.
Respect of the territory, of the traditions and the limits that do not allow to obtain the quantity in spite of the quality, the big numbers through the sacrifice of the excellence.
And a love that looks ahead, with a vanguard cellar, today an example of functional architecture in harmony with the landscape, the seasons and the right work of man.
