Corvina Veronese IGT

Tasting notes: Made with 100% Corvina grapes that were given a brief appassimento treatment before pressing. Brilliant dark ruby in colour, it delights the senses with a variety of aromas and flavours that include ripe black cherry, chocolate and flavours of plum that has been stewed down into a sauce. On the palate, it is full-bodied with elegant and velvety tannins. Vibrant acidity brings balance and freshness, and supports a long and harmonious finish
