Producer

A fantastic producer based in the Veneto hills just north of the city of Verona, Villa Belvedere produce wonderful fresh and exciting modern wines from this classic region.

A master of Valpolicella and Amarone, Villa Belevdere’s winemakers masterfully blend the native grape varieties of Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara, creating extremely rich, velvety reds, brimming with raisin, cherry and balsamic flavours.

Grape varieties

Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara

Style

More to accompany a special dinner than for everyday drinking, these wines are showing more complex flavours and some will improve with a few more years of ageing. Includes Pinot Noir, a wine that tends to be lighter in colour, body and tannins because of the grape’s thin skin. As the wine matures it develops gamey characteristics and much fuller fruit flavours.
