Deep ruby red with a subtle garnet rim, it opens with vibrant aromas of cherry and red plum enriched by notes of liquorice and a faint trace of violet. The palate is medium bodied and silky showing juicy fruit at the front, balanced by polished tannins and a fresh seam of acidity. There’s a savoury edge, minerality, a touch of iron or earthy stone that gives complexity. The finish lingers nicely on red fruit and spice, soft but well-structured. A wine that’s enjoyable now but has enough backbone to benefit from short-term ageing.

Bright purple with vivid, youthful hues. The nose opens with vibrant red fruit — cherry, raspberry — mingled with darker berry notes like blackberry, all lifted by a fresh, herbal breeze of garrigue and a subtle lift of anise. On the palate it is soft and gentle: the fruit is tender and juicy, with good freshness but no harsh edges. Tannins are light, the finish smooth and approachable. This is a fragrant, easy-drinking Cinsault with charm and character, best enjoyed in its youth over the next few years.

NOTE: THIS IS A HALF BOTTLE (37.5cl)
This Valpolicella from the hills of the Classico area is a delicious example of the wine this area is famous for. Corvina expresses its vibrant and quaffable character with fresh and bright cherry flavours.

A wine made from grapes of the mentioned varieties which are later mixed to make a blend that combines the Cabernet Franc (concentrated and generous), Mandó & Summol and the bouquet provided by the four months oak ageing. Post bottled to continue the process of ageing in bottle.
