Contemporary 2020 | Tenuta Sant'Antonio | Monti Garbi Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso

On the nose, notes of red fruit and cherry. On the palate, it is sweet, soft, enveloping, fresh, savory and quite tannic with a spicy aftertaste. Order from the Largest & Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! , James Suckling: Aromas of nutty red fruit and vanilla follow through to a medium-bodied palate with some very fine-grained tannins that are sinking below the surface nicely. Bright, almost steely finish. Still needs another year to show its best.

The estate is made up of 50 hectares (124 acres) of vineyards ' 30 hectares (74 acres) around Mezzane and 20 hectares (50 acres) in San Zeno di Colognola ai Colli in the Valpolicella district. Grape varieties grown in these vineyards include classic regional varieties Corvina, Molinara, Rondinella, Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave, and more international varieties like Chardonnay.
