Riviera del Brenta DOC
Come si dice? Tap the speaker next to a name to hear it in Italian. AI voice.
No strip issued. I'm still hunting a bottle.
Named for the canal lined with Palladian villas that runs from Padua to Venice, this is a flat, fertile zone making light, simple wines for the Venetian trattoria trade. Merlot and Cabernet reds are soft and grassy; Pinot Grigio and Tai whites are clean and neutral; a Raboso rosato and a Prosecco-style frizzante round it out. San Martino Vini (which absorbed Cantine Riviera del Brenta) produces most of the DOC. Pleasant with cicchetti, never memorable.
