Palazzo della Torre Veronese 2013 by Allegrini @ £18.95
Ruby red in colour, Palazzo della Torre has enticing aromas of cherry with rich dark chocolate notes. Velvety in texture, it is well-balanced and offers ripe, juicy dark fruit, with silky tannins and refreshing acidity. This wine has the potential to age for at least ten years.
All of Allegrini's impeccable wines are produced from estate-grown fruit from their 90 hectares of vineyard in the communes of Sant' Ambrogio and Fumane. Across the range and from vintage to vintage, they have superb fruit, balance, intensity, length, elegance, tipicity and, above all, drinkability. Each wine has winemaker Franco Allegrini's distinct stamp of quality, but every one has its own distinctive character. They are among the elite of the world's best producers of red wines. The family has been growing grapes in Valpolicella for several generations, and the estate in its current form was founded by Giovanni Allegrini.
