Mezzacorona 2000 Riserva Superiore Teroldego (Teroldego Rotaliano)
A special bottling produced for the 100th anniversary of the cooperative, this is creamier and much more supple than the regular riserva, reviewed in our December 31, 2004 issue. Smoky, toasty and loaded with berry fruit on the nose, dusty and smooth on the finish, this wine shows what large co-ops can achieve but rarely accomplish.
