Carminium
Colli Berici D.O.C. Carmenere
Soil: Calcareous

Impressions
Vivid ruby core with a narrow purple rim. Intense on the nose, with herbs and spices, black fruit, tannins are soft and balanced. Charming.
The Wine
At the Oratorio di San Lorenzo, our Carmenere vines eventually became 15 years old. Due to the meticulous attention in the vineyards, consistent improvements and other goals achieved along the way, we were able to upgrade these sites alongside those that produce our most important label: “ORATORIO di SAN LORENZO Carmenere Riserva DOC Colli Berici”.
This allowed us to introduce a second wine: “CARMINIUM Carmenere DOC Colli Berici”. It represents a more immediate appreciation of a pure Carmenere, without omitting complexity and elegance. The expression of this unique wine was created by the clays, formed by the landscape of this incredible place, which has almost been kept in its natural state.
