WINEMAKER NOTES:
Since 1870 the Zeni Family have been dedicated to growing and producing classic Veronese wines. Fausto, Elena and Federica run the business following in their father Gaetano ‘Nino’ Zeni’s footsteps. With land holdings of 60 hectares of vines, the family operates two wineries, one located in Bardolino and the other in Valpolicella.
