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 nice consistency in the glass. Good verticality of scents on the nose with a clear sensation 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 delicately almondy finish.
