La Poja Monovitigno Corvina Veronese
Single vineyard %100 Corvina Veronese from the hill top of the La Grola Vineyard which is said to be the birthplace of the grape. Aromas of Plum, wild blackberry, Rosemary, lavender and subtle sweet balsamic. Nearly %15 alcohol but so well integrated. Rich and silky tannins. Drinking beautifully already and has another good 5 years ahead of it. This is a great gateway drug for New world wine drinkers to get into Italian Wine.
