This is an easy-drinking blend of 40% Corvina, 30% Corvinone and 30% Rondinella. The 2015 Valpolicella Superiore Maternigo is perfect for pizza or burgers and fries. The grapes come from the Maternigo vineyard, occupying 31 hectares in the Mezzane area, which lost much of its fruit in this vintage to a violent hailstorm. So, only 13,600 bottles were produced. The quality, however, has remained happily intact, with bright berry and dried blackberry flavors.

A medium- to full-bodied red, with grippy tannins, this offers a tightly knit mix of black cherry, wild sage, iron and dried fig flavors that open nicely on the lingering finish. Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella. Best from 2021 through 2025. 1,700 cases made, 400 cases imported.??–AN??Region: Italy / Valpolicella Select to Add
