Intense, ruby red colour. It fills your nostrils with sensations of cherry preserve, caramelized blackberries and a potpourri of rose petals and dried violets. Balsamic hints of resin and musk, and spicy ones of cloves, cinnamon and star anise complete the bouquet. At first it is powerful and warming on the palate, but the sensation of high alcohol is immediately counterbalanced by a juicy freshness and nice tanginess which, alongside quite evident tannins, give the taste vigour and energy. Delicious hints of cherries and berries preserved in alcohol make the long finish particularly pleasing.

Intense ruby red colour with vibrant garnet reflections. On the nose it offers delightful scents of small, ripe red fruits, which give way to elegant floral notes of violets and red roses, as well as intriguing spicy tones of nutmeg, black pepper and cloves. It offers a lithe entry onto the palate, in which the warm, alcoholic sensations are amply counterpointed by soft tannins, great freshness and a satisfying tanginess that invite you to take another sip. The floral sensations return on the fine, clean finish.

The complex and exquisitely elegant character of this Valpolicella represents an extremely authentic expression of a wine from high hillside vineyards. On the palate, it recalls all the fresh, balm-like sensations of the hills from which it comes, nicely sustained by gentle, rounded tannins.
