SANSONINA | Veneto

Table 9

“Evaluna” Garda Cabernet DOC As a second generation producer in a region that her father, Sergio Zenato, put on the map, Nadia Zenato and her mother Carla Prospero created Evaluna out of a deep love but also deep knowledge of the area. Evaluna (Eve + Moon) evokes the passion and a long practice in the vineyard sites of Lake Garda by the Zenato family. Evaluna in name and intent endeavors to break the mold of what is considered possible in a land of diverse agricultural abundance.

Merlot Veronese IGT Sansonina is a special project for Carla Zenato and her daughter Nadia. This unique, handcrafted red is made entirely fromMerlot grapes, which are harvested by hand in early September. The winery’s name draws from the biblical hero, Samson, who was given superhuman strength. Adding “ina” to a word in Italian is a diminutive term of endearment. Thus, this Merlot becomes a powerful yet refined “Little Samson.”
