About this product

Allegrini Palazzo della Torre The vineyard surrounds Villa della Torre, a splendid masterpiece of Renaissance architecture now owned by the family, and produces a full-bodied red wine that has an ageing potential of at least ten years. The blend is the historic combination of Corvina and Rondinella with the addition of a small quantity of Sangiovese. Tasting Notes The fresh juice obtained at harvest is blended with the juice from the dried grapes, initiating a second fermentation, rendering a more highly concentrated and complex wine. What we like to refer to as our ""baby Amarone"" is more approachable with its pleasant and fruity character with raisin-like qualities. Deep, ruby red in colour, with intense perfumes of cherry-chocolate on the nose. On the palate, the wine has good depth and power, with a hint of dried cherries from the 'ripasso' vinification. Smooth and full bodied, with a rounder style, lower acidity and fuller structure than a Valpolicella Classico. Grape variety: 70% Corvina Veronese, 25% Rondinella & 5% Molinara. Best served with: Pairs well with a wide range of first courses, including full-flavored pasta and risotto dishes. Also enjoy with roasts such as veal
