Drink now through 2020." Wine Spectator, 90 Points - #60 on Top 100 of 2011 This blend of 70% Corvina Veronese, 25% Rondinella and 5% Sangiovese is a smooth, fullbodied cru made in an innovative ripasso style. After the harvest, the grapes from the Palazzo della Torre vineyard follow two different paths: 70% of the grapes picked are vinified immediately, the remaining 30% are left to dry until the end of December. They are then vinified and refermented with the wine from the fresh grapes. Palazzo della Torre has a particular structure and aromatic qualities, combined with an elegant and harmonious personality. A complex wine with pleasant raisined nuances and a lengthy, lingering finish. This wine has an aging potential of 8-10 years.

03/29/2012: very red and fruity, round and silky on the tongue. Obviously too young right now. curious to see how it will mature.

strawberry, prune notes, fruity, low tannin high acidity, medium bodied, smooth, good for tomato based pizza and pasta

not your typical Italian, very fruity, not the best with spaghetti as that competed with the wine flavour

good overall bold

smooth
