most important food and wine publication, rated Allegrini a Star winery with over ten Tre Bicchieri ("Three Glasses"-- their top
recognition) awards. Palazzo Della Torre is a “Cru” wine coming from a single vineyard and is known as their “Baby Amarone.” The blend of 70% Corvina, 25% Rondinella and 5% Sangiovese takes two different paths. Thirty percent of the grapes are left to dry on racks till December, in true Amarone style, and the other seventy percent vinified immediately.

the end result is an absolute sexy wine, deep in ruby red color, with flavors of blackberries and mocha. Oh, and did we mention it was #60 on Wine Spectator's "Top 100 of 2011" with a rating of 90 points! And all for a steal of $15.99!
