Region: 
Valpolicella

Winery Review:  The red ruby color and the dry taste give this wine joviality and cordiality. It is fresh and fruity, with lovely strawberry and cherry aromas and flavors, with nice spice and a silky texture. - Vintage Wine Cellar 02/14/2013

My Review: Very fruity wine with strawberry and cherry easily detectable.  Though dry and not very sweet, Valpolicella has a smooth and silky texture.  I would have preferred a little more sweetness to make this wine a tad more enjoyable.

Food: I did not try this wine with food.
