2023 Prendina Garda Cabernet 0,75 lt
The favorable soil and climate of the place makes this cabernet a precious expressive example of the pyrazine notes of the variety with a total absence of herbaceous vegetal hints.
The vineyards are located between 100 and 120 meters above sea level with a north-east exposure. Spurred cordon training system. Limestone moraine soil with the presence of gravel and sand.
Luciano’s passion for the wine world kept intensifying with his son Giulietto and led to the acquisition of Prendina in 1958, an estate in Monzambano. Giulietto, a failed surveyor and keen radioamateur, turned a passion into a manufacturing activity in the 70s. The achievement of the DOC in 1971 further reinforced the family activity and confirmed Custoza among the Italian quality wines. Also, Prendina gained more importance as the first wine labeled Prendina was bottled: a Merlot which became the wine of the house of Gualtiero Marchesi’s famous restaurant. Nonetheless, the winery remained a secondary activity as Giulietto primarily used it to entertain guests, visitors and stakeholders of the leather industry.
