This exquisite red wine, born from the heart of Valpolicella, is a symphony of tradition and innovation, showcasing the unique appassimento process where carefully selected Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes are dried to concentrate their flavors and sugars.
Its profound ruby color hints at the richness that awaits, while the complex aroma unfolds with layers of ripe cherries, plum, and dried figs, complemented by subtle notes of chocolate, vanilla, and sweet spices derived from oak aging.
