Description
"The Valpolicella Classico DOC is a wine that speaks of this territory, a true litmus test of the vintages and the great expertise of Allegrini. It displays an elegant aromatic profile, with notes of sour cherry, strawberry, and a delicate hint of violet. On the palate, it offers a fresh and harmonious sip, with good acidity that brings vibrancy and well-integrated tannins that support the taste. The 2024 harvest highlighted the importance of strategic agronomic choices, particularly cultivating vineyards in hillside areas, which proved crucial for ensuring grape quality and health. After a mild winter and a rainy spring with below-average temperatures, summer brought a sudden heatwave, requiring careful water management to prevent vine stress. September saw milder temperatures and significant day-night temperature variations, enhancing aromatic complexity. The use of climate monitoring technologies optimized treatments and improved sustainability. Harvesting began in mid-September, with balanced ripening and high-quality, healthy grapes." - Winemaker Notes
