Chosen by Majestic Valpolicella Superiore DOC 2020/21

Description

We sent our award-winning buying team all around the world on an exciting new mission: to curate a new collection showcasing the best examples of key regions and core grape varietals – at great prices. Valpolicella is loved by Majestic customers – so we went to one of the oldest cooperatives in Verona to make this benchmark wine. Located in the hills north of the city, their vines have an average age of 30-35 years old – resulting in lower yields but more concentrated flavours. A classic blend of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Molinara, this is aged for an extra year before release, adding complexity and delicious vanilla spice. It’s typically soft and smooth, with ripe notes of wild cherries. A fantastic pairing for grilled lamb chops, goulash and medium-aged cheese.
