About Lucchine Valpolicella Classico 750ml
Lucchine Valpolicella Classico is a bright, approachable expression of the Valpolicella Classico zone, crafted from the traditional Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara blend. On the nose, it opens with lively aromas of fresh sour cherry, wild strawberry, and dried violet, underpinned by a subtle hint of crushed herbs and warm spice. On the palate, the wine is light to medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and soft, silky tannins. Flavors of red cherry, pomegranate, and raspberry are framed by a gentle earthiness reminiscent of damp clay and dried rose petals. The finish is clean and refreshing, with a characteristic bitter almond note that is quintessentially Veronese — a hallmark of the Corvina grape at its most expressive.
