Carbone Wine: Sauvage Red
Description
Colorado craft began with Carbone Wine. A descendent of the wine culture of Avellino, Italy, industriously poetic Anthony Carbone set up shop in Denver, CO in 1903 to provide quality food, wine and spirits to the burgeoning western market. After the repeal of Prohibition in 1933, A. Carbone & Co. received the first wine and liquor license in Colorado. Carbone Wine was a staple through the world wars, the Great Depression, various mob threats, and survived an exploding whiskey-bottle warehouse fire which was the largest Denver had seen at the time. Today, family members have come together in celebration of this legacy by selecting quality Colorado wines and spirits for your own poetry and industry. Carbone Wine is releasing a family of three wines produced in Palisade, CO.
For the 2023 Red Release, we chose a red blend
from unique, cold and hardy Colorado grapes of 31% Verona in
carbonic maceration blended with 69% Petite Pearl, which
lend to fruity aromas of black cherry and plum, opening up
to lingering coconut and vanilla on the finish. Naturally
produced and unfiltered, sedimentation may occur.
