Bolla Cabernet Sauvignon delle Venezie 2021
This elegant wine is soft, dry, and well balanced with flavors of black cherry, plum, blackberry, vanilla, and subtle herbs. This is a fragrant, fully mature cabernet with an Italian accent everyone loves. Pair it with roasted red meats, rich pastas, or grilled vegetables.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon. In the town of Soave, southeast of Verona, Abele Bolla ran the Al Gambero Inn where he served his famous wines and established the first Bolla cellar in 1883. In the 1930s, his son, Alberto, founded a second cellar in Pedemonte to produce Valpolicella and Recioto wines. In 1947, Bolla entered the American market and since has garnered famous admirers, from Frank Sinatra to Rudolph W. Guiliani (mayor of New York City from 1994-2001). The Brown-Forman Corporation became their US importer in 1967, bought 40% of the brand four years later, and takes over the entire company in 2000. At the end of 2006, Gruppo Italiano Vini bought the Piemonte cellar and became the distributor for the Italian market. And in 2009, GIV purchased 100% of the brand while Banfi Vintners is their exclusive partner for the US market.
