Italian winemakers have been using dried grapes to enhance their wine for centuries. The Valpolicella varietal is one of the most famous wines enhanced with fermentation on dried skins. You will discover that fermentation with the proprietary GenuWine Winery Grape Skins brings out the wine's firm tannins, supported by dark fruit tones any smokey undertones. The result is an Italian classic with all the makings of a powerful full bodied red wine. The aroma in the glass is reminiscent of farm fresh cherries backed by streaks of dark chocolate and toasted oak, which ages well into a wine of award winning potential.

Comes with GenuWine Winery Dried Grape Skins and oak.

Food Pairings:
Enjoy with beef stroganoff or chicken with mushroom and onion gravy. Compliments rich foods such as char grilled pepper steak, well aged cheeses and slow braised baby back ribs.

Labels, corks and shrink caps are sold separately.

As part of the agreement on between the European Community and Canada on trade in wine, the craft winemaking industry is actively abandoning all names of wines that imply geographical indications prior to any attempts on trademark protection, similar to what the industry faced in the 1990's from the French Government (ie Champagne = sparkling wine).

As a result, this wine will now be labelled as Valpola (formerly Valpolicella)
