WINE DESCRIPTION

"Allegrini Palazzo della Torre" is a classic Italian red wine produced by the esteemed winery Allegrini, located in the Valpolicella of Veneto, Italy. The wine is made using a blend of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Sangiovese grapes, grown in the vineyards of the Palazzo della Torre estate, which feature limestone and clay soils. The winemaking process involves a unique technique called "ripasso," in which a portion of the wine undergoes a second fermentation on dried grape skins, adding richness and depth to the wine. The wine exhibits aromas of dark fruit, cherry, and chocolate, with a full-bodied and velvety palate, showcasing the elegant and complex style of the Veneto region.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Allegrini Palazzo della Torre is a deeply concentrated and structured red blend from the Veneto region of Italy.It is a blend of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Sangiovese grapes. The nose is composed of aromas of ripe cherries, plums, and spices, while the palate is full-bodied and intense, with a good acidity and a long, elegant finish. The tannins are soft, making this a great wine to enjoy now but also has the potential to age. Enjoy it with roasted meats, game, and aged cheeses.
