The Italian wine of Notte di Galileo

A walk through the vineyards is breathtaking and peaceful. Here, you literally escape the hustle and bustle of the bustling city of Padua, which is just a twenty-kilometer drive away. This Notte di Galileo is the result of a project by Cantina Colli Euganei. This project began in 1998 with the goal of creating the most ideal conditions for each grape variety. By carefully examining where each grape thrives, you create a super grape that produces unparalleled wines. It took some time, but it was successful. The Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, both part of Notte di Galileo, are planted in vineyards at an altitude of up to 200 meters and facing southwest. Combined with the volcanic soil, the grape develops a unique aroma, which is beautifully expressed when drinking Notte di Galileo Rosso Riserva.
