Zio Nando is named after the man who planted this vineyard in 1944. These old vines produce rich and concentrated wine. The wine opens with dark plum and black cherries, spices and dried flowers. A bright wine with fine creamy tannins, with mixed berries and a touch of minerality all wrapped up with a pop of acidity on the finish.
