This red wine is produced by the Cielo winery. This all-rounder from northern Italy has an impressive track record. For over a century, Cielo has guaranteed accessible and affordable wines without compromising on quality. The name of this wine, 1908, refers to the year it was founded, when several wine producers decided to join forces. Now, over 100 years later, this collaboration is stronger than ever.

The winemakers who are part of Cielo have vineyards located in the beautiful Veneto region. A wide variety of grapes grow here with great pleasure. The climate is excellent. For this Cielo Appassionante Veneto 1908, they use classic grape varieties with a good reputation in Veneto, such as Sangiovese and Corvina. To make this red wine smoother and more flavorful, a touch of Merlot is added.

As soon as you open the bottle of Cielo Appassionante Veneto 1908, you're transported to paradise.

Beautiful taste impressions of fresh red and black fruit, a touch of caramel, cassis, dark chocolate, and a touch of vanilla. It's almost too much to list.
