VANTOROSSO Valpolicella Classico DOC
Tasting Notes
Hints of juicy morello cherry and red rose meet with fresh currant' scents and a pleasant balsamic note. The sip is easy and rich in flavour, very fresh and good in tannins, perfectly balanced with the warm, enfolding feel that alcohol gives which gently goes along the end of the sip. Here we find once again the notes of fruits and flowers in a very pleasant finish.
Corvina
The key varietal of Valpolicella, Corvina wines tend to be bright red and lighter in structure. Corvina's high level of acidity and distinctive cherried, herbaceous flavours are essential to the character of the wine.
Corvinone
A grape very similar to Corvina, but with better characteristics of resistance to water stress and tendency to dry.
