Organoleptic characteristics Contrà del Tono presents itself with a persistent, strong, and lively flavor, reflecting the intrinsic elegance of Valpolicella Classico Superiore. Wine with ruby red reflections and a beautiful consistency in the glass. Good verticality of the aromas on the nose with a distinct feeling of ripe cherry and berries. Spices of black pepper and cloves with a pleasant slightly balsamic sensation of fine herbs, rosemary, and thyme. On the palate, it is particularly elegant with a straightforward and sinuous tannin. Good sapidity and pronounced structural freshness. Good persistence and a delicately almond-like finish. Pairing This wine of remarkable elegance pairs beautifully with spicy cured meats from the Venetian tradition and semi-mature cheeses, preferably of cow's origin. It is also ideal for accompanying first courses based on white meats and red sauces. Perfectly paired with typical soups from the Venetian and Tuscan traditions, prepared with cereals and legumes such as chickpeas, cicerchie, zolferini beans, and borlotti.
