Piave Malanotte

Wine · PDO · 62 municipalities

Established in 2011 across 62 Veneto municipalities including Arcade and Breda di Piave, the Piave Malanotte DOCG distinguishes itself from neighbouring appellations by offering a single, uncompromising style with no Riserva category. This distinct red wine mandates a rigorous 36-month ageing period, with at least 12 months spent in wood, utilizing a minimum of 70% Raboso Piave grapes. The resulting wine must achieve an effective alcohol level of at least 12.5% vol with a maximum residual sugar of 8 g/l. It yields an intense ruby red color with violet reflections, expressing an austere, sapid palate defined by marasca cherry and spice.
