Novaia Valpolicella Classico Organic 2016

Pedemonte Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, ItalyThe Novaia wine estate is in the Classico village of Marano di Valpolicella. The family farms 7-hectares of terraced pergola and guyot vines at 300 and 400 metres above sea level on the calcareous ‘pietra di Lessinia’ stone soils mixed with volcanic elements. Post ferment it spends a brief ten months in steel; and two months in bottle. This simple Valpolicella is a delight to sip from its fragrant fruit aromas to its, sour cherry, blue fruit, crunchy acidity and super fresh palate. Floral spicy alive and ready for food this is perfect uncomplicated red wine for lighter foods. Try this with vegetable pakoras.Tasted: 03 May 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
