Tenuta Vignega Valpolicella

Since the beginning of the 1900s, the Bettili family has been producing wines in the hills east of Verona. When Cristiana's father bought an estate in 1977 to operate his poultry farm, there were 8 hectares of old vines present in this Valpolicella classified appellation. Later, Cristiana took charge of the vines and with rigorous efforts to renew the vineyards, restore buildings for production and implement organic methods. This Valpolicella is a blend of Corvina, Corvione, Rondinella, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Oseleta. Lively ruby red color. Consistent and elegant bouquet with hints of cherry and fresh violets. The palate is balanced, soft and persistent with a pleasant fruit finish. Great with grilled meats and stews, risotto with radicchio, poultry, salmon and grilled vegetables. Beautifully paired with medium-hard cheeses like Monte Veronese.
