VALPOLICELLA SUPERIOR
The Valpolicella Superior Ferragù is a wine of great temper and structure which completely departs from the usual category wine. It is a wine with a faceted personality, vivid color, noble and excellent tannic persistence.
Intense ruby red colour.
A fruit flavor reaches the nose and it perfectly blends itself with spiced and vanilla flavor.
It results full, smooth and persistent to the mouth.
A clean wine, of great content. A wine of stature with superb clarity.
The Ferragù’s Valpolicella Superior is a great fine red wine which can remarkably well atend red meats, braised meats, roast and most of all venison.
It’s also suggested with salami, aged cheese and typical dishes.
