This was the seventh of nine winery visits that were completed over 2 days in the Valpolicella Classico wine region. This was a tightly scheduled tour so we made reservations for the purpose of maintaining our schedule. Our group consisted of 3 but only included 2 active tasters.

The wine is very bold but wonderful! The owner, Barbra, is very friendly as are her colleagues. If you speak English, Sabrina does a fantastic job translating and ensuring that you enjoy...
