About this wine

Cortestrada Sangiovese is a bright and expressive red from Italy's Rubicone IGT. Bursting with aromas of ripe cherry and red berries, the palate is fresh and juicy with gentle spice, soft tannins, and a smooth finish. True to the Sangiovese grape, it delivers both vibrancy and balance in a style made for easy enjoyment.

Perfect with pizza, pasta, and Mediterranean dishes, this is an approachable Italian red that brings warmth and authenticity to the table. A great everyday wine to enjoy with friends, family, or food-filled evenings.

About the producer

Casa Vinicola Botter was founded in 1928 when Carlo Botter and his wife Maria began selling wine in the village of Fossalta di Piave, near Venice. Now in its third generation under Luca, Annalisa, and Alessandro Botter, the family company has grown into one of Italy's largest wine exporters, with a capacity of 23.5 million litres and a range spanning every major Italian appellation. Their own labels — including Cortestrada — capture each region's character with reliability and craft.
