Lidio Carraro to supply World Cup wines!

nicholas.corfe — Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:58:26 +0000

Go Brazil supplier Lidio Carraro, Brazil’s leading boutique winery, has been selected by FIFA to be the official supplier of wine to the 2014 World Cup.

This announcement was made at the recent ProWein trade fair in Duesseldorf and is testament to the high regard in which Lidio Carraro wines are held, not just in Brazil but in many overseas markets.

Speaking in Germany to Monica Rossetti, Lidio’s winemaker, Go Brazil understands that a completely new red and a white wine will be launched globally in the coming months, under the brand ‘Faces’, complete with new logo and packaging. We were fortunate enough to have a sneak preview of both wine and labelling – and confidently predict that Lidio are on to a winner !

The new Nubio 2011 has already been extremely well received and has got people talking with its herby, fig, green pepper aromas and clean, zesty acidity.

Sanjo Nubio Sauvignon Blanc 2011

nicholas.corfe — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:56:13 +0000

12.5% Abv.

Very light in colour, initial freshness on nose giving way to intriguing notes of ripe figs and mango. Dry, with hints of tropical fruit on a fullish palate, underpinned with aromas of bell pepper, herbs and spice. A mineral touch and zesty acidity lead into a lovely long finish. Serve well chilled on its own or as an accompaniment to fish, seafood, green salads or light chicken dishes.
