Wine > Vini rossi Allegrini Palazzo Della Torre Veronese Igt 2019 - Allegrini 0.75 lt

Palazzo della Torre is a historic label of the company; the vineyard surrounds Villa della Torre, a splendid Renaissance residence owned by the family. The composition of the grapes is Corvina (40%), Corvinone (30%) and Rondinella (25%), to which a small percentage of Sangiovese is added. A selected part of the Corvinone is dried until December, and then blends with the base vinified from fresh grapes. Both fermentations, in September and December, take place in stainless steel. The malolactic fermentation naturally takes place in mid-April in barriques, as temperatures rise. The refinement takes place in second passage French oak barriques for over 15 months and for another 7 months in the bottle.
PALAZZO DELLA TORRE ALLEGRINI: TASTING
Palazzo della Torre di Allegrini has a ruby red color with purple hues. On the nose it is pleasant with notes of raisins and cooked fruit, sweet spices, coffee and liquorice balms. In the mouth it is enveloping and balanced, with velvety tannins and a beautiful length. Excellent with Monte Veronese risotto and porcini mushrooms.

Valpolicella, one of most prestigious areas of the Italian wine scene, it has been a land dedicated to viticulture since ancient times, as confirmed by the etymology of its own name: “val polis cellae” means in fact, “the valley of the many wineries”. It is located in western Veneto, between Verona and Lake Garda, bounded, to the north, by the Lessini Mountains. The Allegrini family has been the protagonist of the history of Fiumane and Valpolicella since the 16th century and, since then, has handed down the culture of vines and wine. Notarial documents attest that it played a prominent role in the local community and count it among the families of the most important landowners, which have always been linked to agricultural work and to the enhancement of the peasant tradition. When in 1979 Giovanni Allegrini, driven by a brilliant intuition and a deep knowledge of his beloved Valpolicella, decided to plant only Corvina Veronese grapes on the top of La Grola, perhaps he did not imagine the extraordinary success that this wine would achieve.
