An assemblage of indigenous and internationally known varieties such as Merlot, Teran, Refosco and Cabernet Sauvignon, each vinified sometimes as a single wine, sometimes jointly as a field blend, then assembled into a beautifully balanced red. Mladen’s idea was to show life in renaissance Venice - a wine rich with joy, dynamic and loaded with energy.
Beginning with a nice rolling movement in the glass, the Roxanich Venezia offers young but smooth tannins, dressed in dark berries, creating a firework of fruits that explode on your palate. A bold, bright taste to echo our region’s history.
The Roxanich Venezia represents pulsating life - for this reason, Roxanich Venezia could only ever be a red wine - as turbulent, in constant changes and contrasts, as ancient Venice itself.
