Costa Arènte's Valpantena Valpolicella is a balanced Italian red wine vinified from Corvina (50%), Corvinone (30%), Rondinella (10%) and other red grape varieties (10%).
In the glass, this wine shines in a bright ruby red. The aromatic bouquet is characterized by notes of juicy raspberries, red currants and ripe sour cherries. The aromas of the nose are accompanied by black pepper. The palate enjoys a juicy and balanced texture with a soft tanning structure. The lively acidity is very well integrated into the body and accompanies in the present, medium-long finale.
