This Valpolicella is deep ruby red in colour with a beautiful concentration. On the nose, pronounced cherry and red fruit aromas combine with sweet spice and herbal notes. The palate is rounded and full-bodied, with excellent structure and vibrant acidity; a harmonious wine that is both smooth and vivacious on the palate.

The vineyards are situated on south-east facing hillsides in the Valpolicella DOC, at an altitude of 180-250 metres above sea level. Soils here comprise of calcareous stone and clay. The vines are an average age of 33 years and are trained using the Arbour training system, and grow at a density of approximately 3,000 vines per hectare.

Corte Giara is the negociant label of Allegrini. The wines are made by Allegrini using fruit sourced from outside their own vineyards. They have a similar stamp of quality that sets them apart from most of the Veronese wines produced at this level. As you might expect from Allegrini, the Valpolicella Ripasso and Amarone offer outstanding typicity and quality.
