    2016 Zyme Valpolicella Classico Superiore (Verona, IT) 6R

    Amarone enthusiasts are familiar with the wines of Veronese legend Giuseppe Quintarelli. His son-in-law, Celestino Gaspari, who learned his craft on the Quintarelli estates, now operates his own winery, Zyme (pronounced Zee-may). The Zyme Valpolicella is a smooth, rich, and complex red wine with layers of deep fruit notes underscored by fresh, bright acidity and perfectly-integrated alcohol. This wine drinks well above its price point and pairs beautifully with a teriyaki pork and rice dish.

    About The Varietal

    Valpolicella Blend

    A Valpolicella Blend consists of the three native red grape varieties cultivated in the Veneto region of Italy. The key players are Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella, which is the trio behind Valpolicella DOC wines. These same grapes are the components of the esteemed Amarone wines, where they undergo a partial drying process to produce these rich, supple wines.
