Quoted from Gambero Rosso
“The Candoni De Zan family has developed Tenuta Polvaro, making it a landmark in the territory of Lison – Pramaggiore. Good performance of Tenuta Polvaro Nero, a blend of Cabernet sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah which gives us an immediate and mature nose, harmonious and good tension.”
