TASTING NOTES
The 2021 harvest in Valpolicella will certainly be remembered as one of the best harvests in the last thirty years, if not a perfect vintage. Temperatures never rose above 33°C between June and August, while the nights were very cool and with a low degree of humidity, ensuring that the grapes were completely healthy. There were no hailstorms and no weather events that affected the harvest. The clusters were therefore able to ripen slowly, evenly and completely, reaching full ripeness even at the phenolic level, without developing too much sugar and maintaining a good degree of acidity. The 2021 is a vintage that will be very difficult to match in the future, and absolutely long-lived. The grape harvest was harmonious and gradual, with no hiccups in the cellar, which is more unique than rare and has made it easy to maintain the high quality of this Valpolicella Classico and of all the Boscaini winery's products. A ruby red wine, it expresses distinct hints of fresh fruit on the nose, soft tones and roundness on the palate with returns of fruity sensations dominated by cherry. This Valpolicella is the ideal accompaniment for Italian-style first courses. Serving at room temperature is recommended.
