Valpolicella DOC Superiore Vigne Alte - Zeni is born in the hills of the Valpolicella Classica, a territory suited to native grapes such as Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara. This wine, bottled after aging for at least one year, expresses the balanced maturity of vineyards located at an elevated position, from which the name “Vigne Alte” derives.
The bouquet opens with scents of ripe cherry, black cherry, and light spices, accompanied by a pleasant herbal note and the typical bitter almond characteristic of the denomination. On the palate, it is full-bodied, with soft but firm tannins, a enveloping structure, and a finish with subtle balsamic hints. The sapidity and balance make this Valpolicella Superiore an ideal companion for rustic dishes such as boiled meats, braised dishes, or aged cheeses.
Zeni, a historic winery of the area, masterfully interprets this emblematic grape variety, giving the wine finesse and personality that tell the unique terroir of Valpolicella.
