Allegrini ‘La Poja’ Valpolicella Classico 2013: La Poja covers 2.6 hectares at the top of La Grola in Valpolicella region. It is a rare plot of limestone, rich in iron and magnesium, which makes this vine extremely special. Giovanni Allegrini decided immediately that this was going to be his top cru, made from 100% Corvina.
Tasting notes: After more than four years ageing, the wine is still extraordinarily fresh and crisp with a full spectrum of aromas, ranging from dark fruits: blackcurrant and cherry, to liquorice, vanilla and smoky tobacco notes which follow onto the palate. Full bodied and elegant, framed by taut tannins the wine has a long, lingering finish. Alc 14.5% Grapes: Corvina
