Wine history
chevron-down

In the 1980s, Guido Brivio developed his own wine line and collaborated closely with the esteemed Gialdi winery, which had already specialized in processing grapes from the Sottoceneri region. Brivio wines are characterized by grapes from southern Ticino. In 2001, Brivio Vini SA was acquired by Gialdi Vini SA, expanding the range to include wines from northern Ticino.

Tasting note
chevron-down

A deep and rich ruby red characterizes this wine. The bouquet impresses with its complexity and harmonious intensity. Aromas of black berries, such as blackberries and blueberries, blend with subtle roasted notes and delicate spices. On the palate, it is smooth, fruity, and fresh, with good structure and ripe, juicy tannins. The finish is long, balanced, and beautifully harmonious.

Vinification

The wine is traditionally vinified in stainless steel tanks, with maceration lasting 10 to 12 days at temperatures between 28 and 32°C. It is then aged for 12 months in one-year-old barriques.
