Ca' Bellavitis Italian Red
Two small Italian reds we keep close in Commack.
The story behind Ca' Bellavitis
Italian red is a broad tent, and that is the pleasure of it. From the northeast come Cabernet Franc based reds with bright acidity, dark berry and a green herbal edge, built for food rather than solo sipping. From the south come softer, rounder blends that lean on ripe fruit and easy tannin.
We stock Ca' Bellavitis in Commack in just one to two bottles at a time, so what you see is what we have. Ask us at the counter and we will tell you honestly how each one drinks.
