Raboso Wine

Raboso del Piave is produced in the Piave region in the Veneto, Italy. This is a wine that dates back many centuries, referenced by 1st century writer Pliny the Elder in his Naturalis Historia. Throughout the centuries, the wine was imported throughout Europe, and Raboso was one of the the most planted red grapes in Piave. But in the middle of the 20th century, other grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot became more favored for their more “marketable” familiarity, and Raboso plantings declined. The Confraternita di Raboso Piave was founded in the 1990s to preserve and help re-popularize the wine. 

The traditional production zone spans across Treviso, from Conegliano to San Donà di Piave. The wine is quite rustic, with strong tannins and acidity when young. But like many rustic Italian red grapes, these flavors mellow out with age and reward the patient drinker with rounded flavors.
 
Passito (sweet) versions of Raboso are also produced, often blended with a small Read more »

  • Villa Almé Moscato Petalo Rosa

    Snoothrank:

    The nose was beautiful with lush pink floral notes, ripe peach and a spritz of minerals. On the palate, it was remarkably fresh and vibrant with hints of young strawberries and inner floral notes which lasted through the long and refreshing mineral-laden finish. Read More

  • Bosco Viticultori Canal Grando Venezia Rosé Raboso Spumante Dry

    Snoothrank:

    The nose was reminiscent of summer days with watermelons, fresh sliced apples and floral undergrowth. On the palate, a refreshing wave of fruits washed over the senses with a hint of sweetness and a perfect dose of refreshing acidity. The hardest thing about tasting this wine is that I just wanted to keep drinking it. Read More

  • Canti Prosecco

    Snoothrank:

    This brilliantly colored prosecco has a pleasant mix of floral and fruity aromas. Its flavor exhibits a certain freshness and softness that allows for a velvety finish, a quality that is somewhat unique for prosecco. It goes best with fish and soft cooked meals. Read More

  • Riondo Prosecco Raboso

    Snoothrank:

    Aromas and flavors of strawberries and cream. Not as bubbly as I anticipated, but still a nice texture. Good acidity, short finish. What this lacks in complexity, it makes up by being one of the most purely refreshing wines I've had in some time. Read More

  • Riondo Prosecco Raboso

    Snoothrank:

    Not too dry, just a hint of sweet. It is a beautiful color, different than the rest in that regard because the pink is so delicate. Basically it is just fun to drink. Personally, as a woman, I find it is an ideal drink to grab and get together with your girlfriends. But in general, try it you will probably like it. I loved it and plan to buy more! Read More
