Description:
From the heart of Italy comes a classic example of Valpolicella Classico DOC that brings together regional identity and approachable drinking. Named for its appellation, this red wine represents the expressive trio of Corvina, Molinara, and Rondinella grapes, which shape its aromatic profile and palate presence. The wine carries the sense of northern Italian hillside vineyards through its bright fruit tones and gentle structure.
Tasting Note:
The nose opens with red cherry and sour cherry aromas, warmed by hints of dried herbs and a floral undertone. There is a fresh, slightly spicy quality that keeps the aromatics lively while remaining subtle and refined. Overall the bouquet suggests a wine that is both immediate and layered, inviting closer attention.
On the palate the fruit is ripe without being heavy, showing red berries and a clean, slightly tangy core. Soft tannins frame the mid palate, offering enough grip for food without overwhelming the fruit. The finish is medium in length with a pleasant return of cherry and a dry, mildly savoury note that lingers.
