Interesting Facts
Ca 'del Bosco Carmenere - the only wine in Italy, sold under the name "Carmenere". In Northern Italy has long been considered the variety Carmenere Cabernet Franc, and only special studies (initiated by Ca 'del Bosco) showed the opposite. This fact is reflected on the label - a wolf in sheep's clothing symbolizes the strong and free Carmenere, hiding under the guise of deceptive Cabernet Franc. Since the species is not typical of Lombardy, the wine is classified as a table (VdT).
Ca'Del Bosco considered one of the great Italian wineries, it is located in Erbusco, in the heart of Franciacorta - the birthplace of delicious sparkling wines. Today Franciacorta region in the world is synonymous with flavor and taste fine wines and causes very best emotions!
The company was founded Ka'del Bosco Maurizio Zanella in 1968, the farm is owned 230 acres of vineyards planted with Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir - traditional varieties of the region Franciacorta. After a long and persistent investment, technological improvements and experience acquired company Ca'del Bosco gained a reputation as one of the most prominent manufacturers not only sparkling, but still wines. In 1998 Gambero Rosso, Italian authoritative publication, recognized the winery "stars", this status is awarded to those farmers who have won at least 10 top awards (three glasses) "Tre Bicchieri", and in 2002, the same publication Ka'del Bosco was named "Winery of the Year".
