Now Viewing: Rashi Italian Wines
The name RASHI is an acronym for an eleventh century scholar and winemaker known for his lucid understanding and explanations for the mysteries found in the text of classical Biblical literature, as well as for his extraordinary winemaking ability. Rashi wines are full of flavor and are easy to drink. The pristine vineyards used in the Middle Ages by Rashi have served as models for today's Rashi wine vineyards located in the winemaking heartlands of Italy and New York State. Barolo, the most aristocratic of the great red wines of Piedmont, is intense and full-bodied. Made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, cultivated in the Langhe hills surrounding the town of Barolo, this wine only comes to its full completion after two years of aging in Slavonian oak casks and a third year in the bottle.
