Tasting Note

Nose

The nose opens with aromas of ripe cherries, rose petals, and a touch of black pepper. Beneath that lie subtle notes of tobacco, cedarwood, and dried Italian herbs.

Palate

On the palate, the wine is juicy, refined, and well-balanced. Flavors of red fruit, licorice, and a gentle earthy note come together harmoniously. The tannins are silky, and the wine has a vibrant freshness that makes it highly drinkable.

Finish

The finish is smooth and elegant, with lingering fruity and spicy notes and a hint of almond in the final moments. A wine that effortlessly combines charm and structure.

Villa della Torre

Villa della Torre is based in a stunning 16th-century Renaissance villa in Fumane, serving as the cultural heart of the Allegrini family. Under this label, the family produces a range of wines that marry classic style with modern precision. The Valpolicella Classico Superiore is made exclusively from grapes grown in the historic part of the region, where elevation and limestone soils provide liveliness and elegance. The wine is aged for several months in large oak casks, adding structure without overshadowing the fruit. The result is a wine with timeless character, where tradition and finesse go hand in hand.
