About the Wine  

At their best, the red wines of Valpolicella are deeply complex with an intense flavor profile and long-lasting finish. This commanding profile drives demand for these incredibly delicious wines. Salvaterra makes true to form wine implementing extreme respect for nature, focusing on sustainable agricultural practices, and somehow manages to keep prices very affordable. Valpolicella is like the little brother of Amarone, makes for a quaffable anytime red. 

Tenute SalvaTerra was born in Cengia, a hamlet of San Pietro in Cariano, in the heart of the classic Valpolicella, in one of the most beautiful Venetian residences of the late 15th century: Villa Giona, surrounded by cypresses, olive trees, centuries-old stone walls, and vineyards. The estate exists as an expansive verdant garden, with an excellent winery onsite. 

Valpolicella is the over-reaching growing region in Veneto that produces deep red wines from Corvina. The wines of this region, even when not made in a ripasso style, produce incredibly rich and complex wines. This is your perfect steak dinner bottle.  

Tasting Notes: Corvina, Rondinella, Corvinone. This wine sits in the glass reflecting a bright ruby color. The nose evolves bright Cherry, wildberries, and a touch of spice. The palate is deep and rich, with a long-lasting finish.
