2020 MONTE DEL FRA Valpolicella 'Lena di Mezzo' 75cl (Veneto, Italy)
£16.50
Style - Elegant
Grapes - 80% Corvina, 20% Rondinella
Tasting - Proper, classic Valpolicella Happy to be a translucent, supple and easy-going red rather than attempting to ape the dried grape styles of Amarone or Ripasso. Ripest red cherry, macerated plum and liquorice scents.
FYI: Lena di Mezzo is an 18 hectare estate of traditionally pergola trained grapes. Big yields but perfect ripeness at lower alcohols.
ABV: 12.5%
Contains Sulphites
