Corvina is the principal red grape found around the shores of Italy's Lake Garda making joyously quaffable Valpolicella and Bardolino. In these wines it is youthful, fresh and generally fairly light–bodied, brimming with raspberry and redcurrant flavours. But when picked late in the season, off lower–cropping vines from the best sites, and especially when these grapes are partly dried, as they are in the famous winemaking methods of Recioto and Amarone, Corvina's personality changes completely into a wonderfully intense, powerful and raisiny wine that can develop very well with age.
Lovely ready now dry red. What You expect from down that way with no rough edges and just enough tannin to give it some grunt. Very good value at this price.
Have been buying this wine for years (and years). Consistently delivers a beautiful, savoury rhone wine experience. Definitely punches above its weight. Deep garnet, full bodied, leathery with light spice notes.
Dark, medium to full bodied, with mature flavours starting to evolve. Excellent value, typical Bordeaux wine. Could easily become our house favourite! Delivers very good value for the price.
