Allegrini
Amarone della Valpolicella Corte Giara represents an eclectic and modern interpretation of the Veronese winemaking tradition that arises from a project developed in 1989 by the Allegrini family, responding to the need to adapt classic production to daily consumption. This Amarone faithfully reflects the tradition that makes it a great red of international fame, but at the same time expresses a modern style, in step with the evolution of contemporary taste. In addition to replicating the traditional procedures required for its vinification, we find a specific aging of 15 months that gives it a peculiar intensity and balance, making it pleasant even for less trained palates.

Allegrini
Allegrini 's “La Groletta” is a Valpolicella Ripasso that comes from a characteristic blend of the Veneto terroir, Corvina, present in the final blend at 70%, and Rondinella. The vines of these two native varieties grow on the Corte Giara estate with the pergola system, within a vineyard facing south-east and characterized by the presence of limestone in the subsoil. The bunches are harvested manually during the first week of October, and once they arrive in the wine-making rooms they are de-stemmed. The berries are softly pressed, and the must that is obtained carries out a first fermentation in steel, the refermentation takes place on the dried skins of the Amarone, thus following the typical production criteria of Ripasso. Finally, refinement follows, in which the wine rests for 11 months in Slavonian oak barrels.

On the palate it is of remarkable concentration but at the same time perfectly harmonious, rightly tannic and very persistent.

After the primary fermentation, the Cortaccio is transferred to a room dedicated exclusively to malolactic fermentation, which takes place entirely in French oak barriques and which allows to produce a wine of great structure and balance.

How to choose the right Tuscan wine?
When choosing a Tuscan wine, the first thing to consider is your personal taste. If you prefer sweet, fruity wines, a white wine like Vernaccia di San Gimignano or Vermentino is the right choice. If you prefer more robust, structured wines, then a red wine like Chianti or Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is better.
Furthermore, it's also important to consider the vintage of the wine you're purchasing. Wine quality depends on the climatic conditions during the period in which the grapes were grown, so before purchasing a bottle, it's a good idea to ask the producer about the vintage.
