NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Valpolicella Superiore from Zenato is a delightful and well-structured Italian red.On the nose, aromas of ripe cherry, baking spices and hints of earthy tobacco leaf come together in a complex and inviting bouquet. The palate is similarly inviting, with juicy red fruit flavors and a medium-bodied weight with soft, velvety tannins. The finish lingers with notes of dark chocolate and blackberry. Enjoy this beautifully balanced and elegant Italian red with a charcuterie board and aged cheeses.
