Valpolicella Classico Superiore DOC 'Ognisanti' 2021 (750 ml.) Bertani
The Valpolicella Classico Superiore 'Ognisanti' by Bertani is the CRU of Novare that provides a Valpolicella of superior structure and concentration. Thanks to very limestone-rich soils, it produces a balsamic wine with rich aromas of cherry and sour cherry, accompanied by intense notes of white pepper and dried flowers. The careful selection of the grapes and the rested maceration give a Valpolicella of great balance, vibrant tannic structure, and persistent savoriness, enriched by one year of aging in oak barrels and 6 months in the bottle. Extraordinary complexity and fullness, the result of a skillful vinification.
