-->  2008 La Grola, Allegrini A blend of 70% Corvina, 15% Rondinella, 10% Syrah and 5% Sangiovese, the 2005 La Grola is bright ruby in colour with perfumes characteristic of top quality Corvina bitter cherries and a twist of raspberry. On the palate it has bright, lively fruit with good intensity of ripe, summer berries offset by a hint of liquorice from the Syrah. It is long and elegant on the finish. The Allegrini family estate encompasses 70 hectares of vineyard situated in the heart of the Valpolicella Classico area. The Allegrini family has been growing grapes in Valpolicella for several generations and the estate in its current form was founded by Giovanni Allegrini. Franco, Giovanni’s son, now looks after the vineyards and is the winemaker.
