From: Treviso, Veneto, Italy
Varietal: Glera, Pinot Noir

Taste: In the glass, it appears a pale, delicate pink with a bright pink core. On the nose, it exudes aromas of strawberries, cranberries, and hibiscus. The palate delivers vibrant acidity and crispness, enhanced by fresh strawberries, hibiscus, and subtle floral notes.  


Pairing: Its bright acidity can cut through the richness of spicy tuna tartare with avocado and sesame. For a more unexpected pairing, try Korean-style fried chicken, where the wine’s crispness will refresh the palate between bites of spicy, crispy, and slightly sweet glaze.

About: Opici Wines, a fourth-generation family enterprise, traces its origins back to 1913 when Joseph and Esther Opici began importing Italian wines into New Jersey. Despite challenges during the Prohibition era, the Opicis' passion for wine endured, leading to the establishment of the American Beverage Distribution Company in 1934.

In 1945, the family expanded their operations by acquiring the Cazanove Wine Company in New York, reflecting their desire for growth and diversification. This expansion continued with the relocation of their business to a larger facility in Altaloma, California, in 1948, accommodating increasing demand for their wines.
