More About This Wine
About Allegrini
Allegrini's wine-making history stretches back to the 16th century. In the mid-20th century, Giovanni Allegrini modernized the operation, sought out national and international markets for his wine, and before he died, in 1983, purchased the La Grola vineyard, now the jewel in the Allegrini crown. Today, Giovanni's children, Franco and Marilisa, manage Allegrini's diverse portfolio.

Superb IGT (4 1/2 Stars,

This 2008 vintage non-DOC Corvina and Rondinella based IGT blend is absolutely superb. Leather, cedar, spice, dark berries, faintly tart on the palate with controlled tannins on a smooth lingering finish. A wonderful compliment to a wide range of meats and cheeses. A far better than averge wine at a great price. As with most bold red wines, this beauty will benefit greatly from several hours in the decanter. Buy as much as you can afford before it's either all gone,,,or the price goes up!!! :)~ Recommended without reservation.
