Le Guaite di Noemi Valpolicella Superiore 2014

Description

Dry still red Valpolicella DOC, 15% ABV, produced by Le Guaite di Noemi. Blend of Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella. 0.75L bottle, 2014 vintage. A Valpolicella Superiore that tells the story of a family that has cultivated a passion for wine in the Mezzane Valley, Veneto, for years. The grapes are harvested in mid-September and left to dry for a month in a drying room. Aged for 36-48 months in second-use French barriques, followed by a further 36-48 months in bottle after bottling. Notes of red cherries, blackberries, plums, freshly cut grass, violets, and currants. On the palate, it is soft and enveloping, with a pleasant savory finish, excellent acidity, and distinctive notes of ripe red fruit and spices.
