The name says it all — Duo Rosso is a wine built on partnership, a blend of two complementary red grapes from the Veneto that together produce something genuinely special. Corvina, the noble grape of Amarone and Valpolicella, brings a distinctive cherry richness, a lovely natural acidity, and that characteristic hint of bitter almond that is the hallmark of great Veneto reds. Cabernet Franc adds structure, dark fruit intensity, and a warm spice that gives the blend real depth and complexity. The nose is rich and inviting — ripe cherry, a hint of coffee, and a seductive sweet spice note. On the palate it’s concentrated and well-structured, with soft, well-integrated tannins and a rounded, smooth finish that lingers with real satisfaction. The kind of generous, characterful Italian red that works brilliantly with hearty pasta dishes, grilled meats, or a good aged cheese. Excellent value at £18.99.
