2009 Allegrini - Palazzo della Torre Veronese

Varietal: Red Blend | Location: Italy - Veneto - Veronese

WS 89

This is easily one of our favorite "go to" Italian reds for consistency of quality year in and year out. It fits somewhere between the lighter Valpolicella and the heavier style of Amarone. Both the 2006 and 2007 received 90 points from The Wine Advocate. They explain how this unique wine is made...

"Allegrini employs a unique variation of the ripasso technique for its Palazzo della Torre. The traditional method callas for the wine to undergo a second fermentation on the skins that are leftover from the vinification of the Amarone. The estate believes that this method leads to oxidized wines. Instead dries a portion of the grapes (around 30%) and ferments them separately in the same style as an Amarone, then adds that wine to the larger portion of the wine, which is fermented in the traditional manner."
