Allegrini La Grola 2016

Product description
La Grola is the extraordinary result of the meeting of two great personalities: the hill of La Grola and the Valpolicella's autochthonous grapes. The excellent exposure of the vineyards, which enjoy the sun's warm rays and the cool breezes that come from nearby Lake Garda, allows the grapes to produce their very best. Careful, craftsman-like ageing in the cellar yields a red wine with great elegance, harmony and finesse that can evolve positively for over a decade.

93 Points - James Suckling

Lovely balance, as always, to this super Veronese red with juicy dark fruit and hints of black chocolate. Medium to full body, succulent tannins and a fresh finish. La Grola is excellent paired with red meat dishes, whether roasted or with dark sauces, and especially lamb. It is also delicious with stewed or grilled mushrooms and with mild, aged cheeses.
