TASTING NOTE

Colour: deep ruby red

Nose: suggestions of ripe cherries and scents of berry fruits (particularly redcurrants and raspberries), with spicy (pepper) notes and faint vanilla hints

Flavour: this quite full-bodied wine is rich and mouth-filling: it is characterized by gentle tannins, considerable fruit and spicy notes on the finish

Serving suggestions: excellent for accompanying typical Italian autumn and winter dishes; it goes perfectly with barbecued meats and moderately mature cheeses

Note: it is made entirely from Corvina Veronese grapes, which are typical of the Valpolicella area and the eastern shore of Lake Garda
