Valpolicella Corte Giara 2024
The Valpolicella by Corte Giara is a Veneto red wine made from Corvina and Rondinella grapes, aged for a short period in steel tanks to maintain an intense and pleasant fruity fragrance. It has aromas of cherries and black pepper, with herbal notes, and offers a balanced sip between softness and freshness.
The Corte Giara Valpolicella is the most classic and traditional wine of Valpolicella. The magnificent hilly area to the northeast of the city of Verona has always expressed wines of great freshness and fruity fragrance, medium structure, and a lovely drinkability. It is a label made with the traditional red grape varieties typical of the area: Corvina Veronese and Rondinella. The vinification takes place exclusively in steel, allowing the varietal characteristics of the grapes to shine, resulting in a young, straightforward, and immediate red.
The Corte Giara Valpolicella is born in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica area, where the Allegrini Family manages a historic estate. The property extends over a total area of more than 100 hectares, concentrated mainly in the areas of Sant’Ambrogio and Fumane. The vineyards are cultivated with the varieties historically present in the area, which are still the basis of the great wines of Valpolicella. The predominantly limestone soils, rich in skeleton, the beautiful sunny exposures, characterized by a mild and breezy climate, thanks to the presence of the nearby Lake of Garda, allow the grapes to ripen perfectly with intense aromatic profiles. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, and the wine rests for several months in steel before being bottled.
The Corte Giara wine from the historic and renowned Allegrini winery is a beautiful version of the wine that has made the history of this territory, before, in more recent times, the production of Amarone and Ripasso was introduced. In the glass, it presents a bright ruby red color, with youthful violet hues. The bouquet expresses fragrant aromas of cherry, marasca, small red fruits, hints of aromatic herbs, and delicate spices. The sip is lively, with a crunchy fruit and a salty finish of great freshness.
