Tasting notes
It’s a wine that simultaneously expresses a solid character given by its tannic structure, balanced by refreshing acidity and ripe red fruit. A great fruit concentration of brambles, cherries and violets is followed by more tertiary notes of tobacco, cigar box and dark chocolate. Tannins are firm but ripe, creating a velvety sip with a long finish of red and black fruits.
Why we like it
It is the embodiment of Allegrini's innovative spirit and proof of how the most suitable soils of Valpolicella and quality viticulture can produce great red wines, even without the use of traditional techniques such as appassimento and ripasso. The unique and unrepeatable pedoclimatic conditions of the La Grola vineyard and the meticulous work in cultivating the grapes give rise to a wine of great personality, intense, elegant, and appreciated for the finesse of its aromas.
Pairings
La Grola is a structured red wine but at the same time extremely versatile when it comes to pairings. Perfect with meat-based pasta dishes like lasagna Bolognese, it is delicious with stewed mushrooms and with aged, non-spicy cheeses if you're looking for a vegetarian alternative. It's also suitable for meat dishes that require sauces, such as braised or stewed meats.
