Three generations of the family have looked after this wine business which was founded in Verona in 1925 by the Pasqua brothers. Today their passion and love for wine drives them to craft both classic styles like this Valpolicella Superiore as well as more modern bottlings which are both exported all over the globe.
As is traditional, this sumptuous red is crafted from hand-harvested Corvina, Rondinella, Corvinone and Oseleta grapes from the family’s 23 hectare Montevegro vineyard located 350 metres above sea level on top of a hill. After the harvest the fruit is macerated for an extended period on the skins to extract lots of delicious flavours and tannins. The young wine is then aged in 500 and 225 litre French oak barrels for 18 months to add finesse and extra complexity.
Seductive and rich notes of blueberries, cassis and morello cherries dominate the nose, while the first sip reveals an attractive core of dark fruit as well as liquorice, woodsmoke, and cigar box spice. The ample tannins and generous full body make this a great partner for red meats, including barbecued ribs, roast lamb, or game dishes.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
