| The history of Ville Crine goes
back to 1700 when the ancestral house was built, nestled in the
foothills of the Italian alps. For generations the family passed on,
from father to son the art of making and tasting wine, an art that has
been refined by today's owner Battista Venturini working in the heart
of Valpolicalla Classico. The hilly area with its many micro climates
is especially suited for making an excellent Valpolicella of which
Battista and his wife Mara are exceptionally proud, specially since it
took many years of sacrifice to reach the quality of the wine produced
today. We hope you like it as much as we do. Tasting Notes: This is a classic Valpolicella. It is a medium-bodied, dry red whose fruit is balanced by soft tannins. Try it with roast pork, game or pasta. |
