THE MOST REPRESENTATIVE WINE
The wines of the SanZeno family represent the history and the cutting edge of production.
Within this line, the SanZeno Riserva Fondatore (as its name expresses) is undoubtedly an important "ambassador" and "forerunner": in fact, the production of wines in 1978 began with two wines, one of which was precisely the SanZeno Riserva Fondatore.
