Biscardo Neropasso 2021/22

Get to know: Mabis, Biscardo Neropasso 2022

A rich and velvety Italian red wine from Veneto.

Tasting Note

Crafted by the renowned Biscardo family, who have been making wine in Soave for over 150 years. This 2022 Neropasso is made using the traditional Appassimento method, where selected grapes are partially dried before vinification, creating a wine with intense flavour, plush texture, and remarkable depth – perfect for lovers of smooth, fruit-forward reds. Deep ruby red in colour, with enticing aromas of cherry, black cherry, plum compote, and warm spice. The palate is fine and velvety, offering layers of ripe red and black fruits, gentle spice, and a persistent finish with soft, rounded tannins.

Top food pairings:

  • Tagliatelle with rich ragù
  • Roast lamb or pork loin
  • Fresh or aged cheeses such as Asiago or Parmigiano
Kate Says

"A wine that's easy to love – and there's been a lot of love for Appassimento. Once people try the expressive sweet fruit, they can't wait to tell someone. It feels like a word-of-mouth success, and it's quickly become a bestseller."
