Corte Giara Valpolicella, the freshness of a simple and authentic wine

Allegrini Valpolicella 2015
Corte Giara
Valpolicella DOC - Italy
SAQ Price: $ 15.60
Let's travel to beautiful Italy, even if only through the tasting of one of their wines. Today we land in Valpolicella, one of the best-known Italian wine regions in the world.
The Allegrini Valpolicella is a soft and balanced red made from two native varieties: corvina and rondinella. The nose shows subtle notes of red fruits, flowers and spices. In the mouth it is an elegant wine, delicate, with a marked but pleasant acidity and a persistent and gentle fruity finish. A well achieved Valpolicella, approachable and delicious, to enjoy either as an aperitif or as a companion of homemade Italian Cucina dishes.

Bodegas Cándido Hernández Pío: two appelations, three brands and great wines from the mythical Canary Islands

Image
By Marina La Forgia The wines from Bodegas Cándido Hernández Pío have an identity that we can define as traditional and modern at the same time. It is a winery with history in one of the oldest wine-making regions that are known and with an exceptional terroir, the Canary Islands. The roots of the vines that compose these wines grow in volcanic soil, which offers unique characteristics to the fruits. In addition, a modern commercial vision is approaching the history of centennial elaboration trying to seduce a current public avid of different sensations. Consumers that count on a demanding palate and with many wines in the market. For this, nothing better than elaborate wines of a very local character, extracting to the maximum the characteristics of the Canarian soil. The results are in sight (in the e nose and the palate as well), with wines of great quality and maximum expression. Their white wines have captivated me for being very fresh, intense and with very particular notes.

Allegrini and three options to fulfill any expectations!

Image
By Marina La Forgia The Allegrini wines are the kind of ones that you can never get disappointed. In every price range they offer the best quality-price ratio and they are pure expression of the best new Italian style. The venetian winery is acclaimed by their excellent Amarone della Valpolicella wines, but they have a wide variety of other products and labels that here in Quebec are gaining more and more adepts. The example? These 3 wines that I absolutely recommend: Allegrini – Di Fumane 2015 Vino Rosso IGT – Italy SAQ Price: $15,50 A simple and delicious blend made with indigenous grapes Corvina, Corvinone and international Merlot, which is plenty of aromas. In the nose we can feel the red fruit marmalade, some floral notes like roses and violets, some vanilla and even nuts. In the mouth, its medium bodied but enough strong to marry perfectly with some Italian dishes, like pasta or pizza. This is a wine you can bring to any informal friend’s or family’s supper without

Pater Sangiovese: a delicate and affordable wine from Frescobaldi

Image
Pater Sangiovese IGT Toscana 2014 Frescobaldi SAQ Price: $ 15.45 I often like enjoying these wines from centuries-old wineries, considered classic, unique and prestigious.  My humble pocket does not allow me to procure the best and most expensive ones, but generously these wineries produce some affordable wines so that all of us can have access to, in order to enjoy a little bit of the magic and the emblematic know-how.  Coming from the beautiful and captivating region of Tuscany, this Sangiovese of Frescobaldi is a real delight. It is a seductive and delicate wine to love all palates.  On the nose is a harmony of red fruits such as raspberry, strawberry and cherries, added to notes of mint and tobacco that give a very special refreshing touch.  On the palate, this wine is well balanced, elegant and smooth. The fruit seduces us again and leaves us a very delicate and enveloping finish. To accompany pasta with soft tomato sauces, or to enjoy it just as an aperitif, si
