CA' MERLETTO Bianco Veneto IGT
Ca’ Merletto Bianco ("White Lace") IGT Veneto embodies the pleasure of a fresh and inviting wine, with all the grace of its marvellous region. Vinified with meticulous care, it brings to any tasting a wide and always stimulating set of aromas; just like the laces of Venice, made with the expertise of a skilled artisan, this wine demonstrates the elegant touch of our Wine Makers, as they gracefully write an important page in the great book of Italian wine.
To the eye it shows a pale straw yellow colour with greenish highlights, bearing witness to its freshness and youth. It has accentuated floral notes, which characterise a bouquet of great expressive amplitude: hints of white fruit, apple and pear stand out. Easy to drink, it yields a fresh and intense taste. Harmonious, with a perfect balance of subtle nuances of taste, Ca’ Merletto Bianco IGT Veneto is a wine of absolute finesse, supremely elegant and always enjoyable to drink.

"Eventus" Bianco
A modern wine studied at length by the master winemakers at Giordano to satisfy the most discerning tasters. It is obtained with the best white grapes, grown in the most suitable areas. The vinification involves immediate separation of the skins from the must, followed by fermentation at very low controlled temperature, to preserve its freshness and aroma. The name, Eventus emphasises the unique and rare characteristics of this wine.
Golden, straw yellow with greenish hints, and an elegant, floral bouquet with notes of exotic fruits and green apple. A stupendously pure bouquet. This is one of the most fragrant, fruity wines made at Giordano. A soft, balanced flavour with hints of yellow apple, pear and grapefruit.
"Raggiante" Rosato
It is produced from red grapes, cultivated in the sunny coasts of the Mediterranean Sea. The climate is perfect, mild and windy. It guarantees a perfect maturation: we choose carefully the best time for harvesting and the best method for vinification. In this way we obtain this excellent wine with a passionate character.
Faint pink colour, light and delicated. Soft and elegant taste with a significant balance; typical fragrance of grapes. It is easy to drink.
"Andrea" Vino Rosso
Wine, for me is also the silence of the winery: for this Winemaker's Choice Rosso there were moments when only the echo of the steps filled the space between the barrels, my breath was the only soundtrack to the maturing of my wine. It takes passion. When you love what you do, it comes naturally. Sometimes it takes your breath away, it makes you experience emotions with an overwhelming intensity. I personally chose the vines for this blend, inspired by the sensations of a torrid summer inside and outside the wine cellar. I followed step by step, one wine tasting after another. When I realized that it was ready to bottled, I felt a strange feeling of jealousy, as if faced with a painful but necessary detachment. At that moment, while I was tasting the wine in the dim light, I understood that it was ready. Wine is emotion. Mine? Mine is a passion to be shared.
Andrea, Wine Maker Giordano
Like a mirror from a fairy tale, the red of the chromatic texture has purple veins and reflects the light, creating changeable and fascinating patterns. The red fruits, raspberry and marasca, emerge through a full and expressive smell: the vanilla, distant and suggestive, peeps through. On the palate it is harmonious and full-bodied, a velvety with a distinguished aftertaste. You can catch clear traces of chocolate and vanilla.
Vinification
Grapes and vines are my everyday life. I see sprouting plants, budding flowers, growing fruit, maturing and reaching the perfect moment for the harvest. At harvest time, I watch over the whole process: mine is a conductor's job, every aspect is an instrument which must play the right notes to produce the perfect harmony. Each variety has its own voice: if in the denominations certain tones are crystallized, a blend allows you to add your own, shaping a wine that has an unusual, new character. For the Andrea Vino Rosso, I chose the tools that I thought best suited to orchestrate the taste I had in mind. After the careful selection of the grapes, after fermentation, after the first time in the tank, I made the vines talk in the way I thought best, giving this red a pinch of my personality. The refinement did the rest, in the comfortable setting of the Giordano wineries. And there, this wine matured, taking on a part of me during our silent dialogues.
Tips
The search for something new is the basis of constant personal growth. We talked a lot about the Winemaker’s Choice line. We were asked to come out of the shadows, not only to put faces to those who, behind the scenes, make Giordano wines, but also to offer a personal interpretation of the wine according to each of us. This Red wants to be my business card, it is a wine which conquers me. I hope I can break through to your heart, just as it has broken through into mine.
