From the Piave river area, this Raboso shows perfection with pasta, due to its intense acidity. Happy for having a box of it here - Da região do Rio Piave, esta uva autóctone italiana faz um belo trabalho como um vinho gastronômico. Sua elevada e deliciosa acidez cai super bem com uma boa massa, uma bela pizza. Que alegria ter uma caixa dele em casa! — 10 years ago

Best wine I have ever had. It is sweet without being too sweet. There's not a super dry alcohol flavor. (Available @ Fresh Market) — 10 years ago
To talk about Raboso is to talk about the Republic of Venice. We go back to the 697 ad. The Raboso grape grown in the area of the river Piave was a wine with deep red color, acidic, alcoholic and strong with tannins. The vivid herbal flavour was impossible to tame. It was perfect for venetians, to make the water (barely) safe to drink, for the hosts to sell, and to make a profit, since they could cut it with water (illegally) with no notice from the customers. Antonio Bonotto with his love for tradition and enormous passion for wine succeded in something unexpected... To make a wine that goes back to the dark ages which was barely drinkable, in todays standards, into a Great wine. Intense and pretty complex. With flavours ranging from spices, black pepper, almonds, nutmeg, leather, chocolate, blackberry, cherry liqueur .... You can feel Marco Polo's distress and the struggle of those harsh times but translated into a modern, concrete and intense wine. Like venetians are. Easy to fall in love and easy to put up a fight...Is this wine perfect? Was Bette Davies beautiful in todays standards? Was a 1968 Ferrari Daytona a reliable car? I guess not. But man... That's bleeding passion.. And I just love it for that. — 10 years ago

Cherry, and Violet's all the way. Paired with a piave - but wish we had some meat action. Even a pepperoni pizza with this would be magic. — 10 years ago
