The nose on this fresh Valpolicella is driven by pretty and upfront fresh floral notes followed by zippy red-berry fruit notes and hints of tobacco. The palate is lifted with fresh cherries, mixed herbs and underbrush-all well balanced-giving the wine an easiness about it yet a complexity that keeps you coming back.

A balanced, light- to medium-bodied red, with ripe blackberry and macerated cherry fruit accented by orange peel, fresh earth and a waft of medicinal herb aromas. Corvina and Rondinella. Drink now. 25,000 cases made, 11,520 cases imported.
