This blend of 70% Corvina Veronese, 25% Rondinella and 5% Sangiovese is a smooth, full-bodied cru made in an innovative ripasso style. After the harvest, the grapes from the Palazzo della Torre vineyard follow two different paths: while 70% of the grapes are vinified immediately after the harvest, the remaining percentage is dried until the end of December. At this point, the wine ferments again with the dried grapes. This wine will age easily for 8-10 years. Deep ruby red in color, it has a delicious red berry perfume, with hints of raisins and plums.

Food pairing

Palazzo della Torre is great with a wide range of “risotti” (particularly with pork), mixed grilled meats, roasts and the traditional Veneto boiler meats “bollito misto”. Serve at 16- 18°C (61-64°F) and open the bottle an hour before drinking.
