Special Offer Viandante Del Cielo Rosso 2018 Deal Alert: 35% Off [PFMOa14r]

Viandante is the boldest creation of Viandante del Cielo, a wine of structure and poise modelled on the great vintages of Bordeaux, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with an important Merlot supporting act. The varieties may be international, but the lakeside terroir exerts a strong influence and makes this a distinctly Umbrian variation on the theme. 

Vivino Rating: 4.2 (Feb 2025)

Taste

Dark ruby with violet tinge, complex and lifted nose of cigar box, blackcurrant leaf and crunchy morello cherry. Distinctively spicy, earthy and vibrant on the palate with muscular, yet fine-grained and enveloping tannins. Sophisticated and savoury, impressively long finish.

Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon | 15% Merlot 

Ageing: 14 months in barriques, 8 months of bottle refinement before release.

About the Producer

In 2007, California-based Skywalker acquired 24 hectares (60 acres) on the northern shore of Umbria's Lake Trasimeno, the first European addition to a portfolio which would be further enriched in 2017 by the addition boutique winery, Château Margüi in Provence, southern France.

The Skywalker team immediately set about converting and restoring Il Convento dei Cappuccini, the 16th-century monastery at the centre of the Viandante del Cielo estate, into a welcoming, elegant ten-bedroom property. Il Convento provides exclusive, impeccable comfort for those seeking the ultimate in pampered relaxation in a setting of magnificent natural beauty, with privileged access to the estate's own wines, extra virgin olive oil and garden produce.
