(p.359 – Translation)
“…In a few years the Rizzardi family gave an acceleration to improve the quality to all products, and the potential of this estate comes out with Pojega 2007 as a symbol; this wine offers a great range of perfumes of native grapes and at the same time it is a light and very elegant wine…”

Telegraph.co.uk , Jun 18, Jonathan Ray, “Wines for Father's Day”,“Encourage the old chap in his endeavours with a couple of terrific barbecue wines” 2009 Rizzardi Soave Classico Costeggiola Single Vineyard, 12%vol, Italy” is something of a riarity, a Soave with character and flavour. Beautifully crafted, with ripe, sweet apple-and-pear fruit but a crisp, dry, long finish, it is wonderful with barbecued sardines of mackerel”.
London Evening Standard, Feb 25, Andrew Neather, “The discerning drinker: The best wines from Valpolicella”, Guerrieri Rizzardi Pojega 2007, Valpolicella Ripasso, “Lovely depth and enticing, cherry fruit, balanced by fine-grained tannins”.
Decanter, Italy 2010 , January supplement, Christelle Guibert, “Sweet Success”, Guerrieri Rizzardi, Recioto di Soave Classico DOCG, Veneto 2006, “Fresh floral note with some honey. High acidity, lovely zestiness with lime freshness and acacia honey. Very refreshing. Perfectly balanced”.
