Le Poiane Valpolicella Classico DOC 1995

Le Poiane Valpolicella Classico DOC 1995 - Bolla

The grapes of this wine were picked by hand from the vines of the Valpolicella Classico region. Jago, a small village in the municipal district of Negrar, is a hilly area that has always supplied the best grapes for fine Valpolicella and also for the select raisinized grapes used for superb Amarone. The vinification process does not follow strict rules: depending on the season's climate and available grapes, the oenologist decides what must be done to obtain the desired result. Le Poiane Vintage 1995 is the result of a "ripasso" method (the wine is refermented on Amarone skins).
