The wine has a ruby red colour with garnet reflections. The sweet aromas of blackberry, blueberry and black cherry with notes of undergrowth and wet earth complete the picture. On the palate it manages to combine its full and opulent nature with a pleasant and balanced sweetness. A long finish of delicious floral and spicy notes and a velvety and elegant tannin.

Tenuta Santa Maria Recioto della Valpolicella DOCG Classico is a rich, sweet red wine from the historic Valpolicella Classico region of northern Italy. Made from carefully selected local grapes, including Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella, it follows the traditional appassimento method, in which grapes are dried before fermentation to concentrate their flavours. The wine offers aromas of ripe cherries, dark berries, dried fruit and subtle spice. On the palate, it is velvety and full-bodied, with a sweetness balanced by freshness and structure. Enjoy it with dark chocolate, fruit-based desserts or mature cheeses, or savour a small glass on its own.
