Catullo Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore DOC 75 cl Bertani

Medium-bodied wine with gentle spicy notes of vanilla and chocolate, accompanied by typical notes of cherry, black cherry and white pepper. On the palate it is characterized by an easy drinkability, typical of Valpolicella, and, at the same time, by a silky tannic structure and an intense and prolonged aromatic persistence. The finish is fresh, soft and tasty. Wine with a classic, elegant, balanced, harmonious style.
