The jewel of Zenato’s production, this wine is made from a selection of top grapes from Valpolicella Classica grown in Sant’Ambrogio township (Corvina, Rondinella, Oseleta, and Croatina). Red tending towards garnet with aging. The bouquet is Intense and enveloping, with notes of maraschino cherry, dried plum, fig, sweet tobacco, and fine spices; balsamic, 
leather, and cocoa hints are also perceptible. On the palate it is warm, full, and velvety, with present tannins, good freshness, and a powerful yet balanced structure. The finish 
is long, with echoes of ripe fruit, spices, and subtle balsamic notes.

Blend: 85% Corvina Veronese, 10% Rondinella, 5% Oseleta & Croatina

96 Points - James Suckling

Restrained fruitiness with aromas of raspberries and earth, alongside a complex spicy blend of freshly ground black pepper, milk, mint, bay leaf and cocoa powder. Very youthful. Full-bodied, dense and balanced, with savory flavors of chocolate and cherries, super-tasty style, tight, chalky yet ripe tannins and a fresh, cleansing acidity. Toasty finish. Drinkable now, but best in a year or two.
