This is a 100% Corvina by one of our favourite producers - Allegrini. As it is 100% Corvina, this is an IGT (Super Tuscan).
Allegrini's Poja Corvina Veronese is a Veneto wine made from a rigorous selection of south-east facing vineyards that are poised at an altitude of 320 metres. The vines are 43 years old on average and are planted on clay and chalk soil.
Great ripeness and full bodied (14.5% abv) yet good freshness and lift. Give it 2 to 3 hours of decanting, its fruits will blossom. It is so elegant that we could have this with Chinese food. Tasted in July 2023.
