Zenato Valpolicella Superiore 2016 Review
If you were to ask me, right now, what wine would be great for everyday and doesn’t cost a lot I would hand you this, nay, open this bottle and pour you a glass (slightly chilled) and we would immediately high five. This bottle in widely available, and extremely affordable for the quality. Wines from here don’t get enough love and I am hoping this feverous review will compel you to seek out this vibrant, fruit driven, juicy, somewhat peppery wine, with aromas of cranberry and cherry fruit. This is a wine that is soon to be a new staple in your wine line up.
