We should not forget that Castello Bonomi also produces great red wines.
Cordelio stands on all: it is an exemplar of great structure, an harmonious and powerful blend, with a magnifical texture and perfectly round.
A fantastic surprise among all these beautiful sparkling Franciacorta wines
Colour
Cordelio is intense red, with extraordinarily deep garnet tinges.
Bouquet
After the initial intense and almost explosive bouquet of red ripe fruit, the scents of spices, wood and coffee follow to complete the aromatic picture.
Taste
The full and dry flavour is well balanced as acidity and tannins make a perfect combination.
Cordelio is a surprisingly elegant wine, with incredibly fine and round tannins, perfect for the palate giving a very delicate sensation.
It expresses a great final aromatic persistence.
