Scaia
Scaia operates in Veneto, the northeastern Italian region celebrated for its distinctive red varieties and elegant expressions of indigenous grapes. The winery's portfolio centers on Cabernet Sauvignon and the native Veneto triumvirate of Corvina, Rondinella, and Corvinone. Torre Mellotti Cabernet Sauvignon Passito, a concentrated interpretation of the Bordeaux variety, anchors the range at the highest prestige rating. Paradiso, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon with the local trio, demonstrates the winery's command of both international and regional grapes in concert. A dry Rosato built from Rondinella rounds the selection, capturing the freshness and mineral character typical of Veneto's rosé expressions. Wine Enthusiast has assessed the portfolio. The wines reflect the region's cool continental climate and limestone-rich soils, which impart structure and precision to both dark-skinned and lighter varieties.
