Alvento Releases Two Highly Anticipated 2007 Reds

2010-08-24

Finally we believe some of our 2007 reds are ready to be tasted by your sophisticated palates. We have held these wines back as they were not showing their full potential. As everybody knows 2007 was a great vintage for Niagara, and the wines definitely reflect that. The patient connoisseur will enjoy these wines now but will discover their full potential in the future.

You are invited to Alvento Winery on August 28 & 29 and Sept 4 &5 to taste and buy.

Sondra 2007: 90% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc
13% alc/vol - $26.95

Tasting Notes:
Color: Deep Ruby Red
Nose: Wild berries, plum, roses, chocolate, and baking spice
Palate: Full bodied, complex and persistent with
well integrated tannins.

David Lawrason declared our Sondra 06 as one of Niagara's best.

Emilie 2007: 70% Cabernet Franc, 30% Merlot
13% alc/vol - $29.95

Tasting Notes:

Very long finish.

Both wines are very young, have excellent aging potential, and will develop into voluptuous wines in the future.
