Mezzanella Amandorlato
Recioto della Valpolicella Classico DOCG
A cru Recioto wine that stands out for particular complexity and for its characteristic almondy aftertaste. Its subtle charm is thanks to the well ventilated vineyards that allow it to go through ideal appassimento conditions. It’s also considered a real rarity.
The first impression on the palate is sweetness and richness. Then its seductive magic kicks in to make it more serious, drier and fuller. The final impression is of bitter-sweet tastes, such as in plain chocolate and high quality cigars.
