Valpolicella - Superiore - Piubello

Andrea Piubello’s Valpolicella Superiore DOC is produced in the hills of Valpolicella, in the upper Monte Scalucce area, from Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Teroldego grapes grown in calcareous soils rich in stones. The vines, trained using the Guyot system and averaging 25 years of age, express the full character of a region ideally suited to producing great red wines from the Verona area.

In the glass, it displays an intense ruby-red color that develops garnet hues with age. The bouquet combines notes of fresh red fruit with hints of ripe fruit, accompanied by delicate spicy nuances and elegant, never overpowering oak. On the palate, it is fresh, structured, and tannic, with a pleasant roundness that lends balance and depth to the sip.

Vinification takes place in steel tanks with spontaneous malolactic fermentation, followed by 6 months of aging on fine lees and then 24 months in French and American oak tonneaux and barriques. Extended bottle aging completes this refined wine, designed to evolve over time while maintaining elegance and harmony.

Perfect with structured first courses, roasts, braised meats, grilled meats, game, and aged cheeses. Also ideal with intensely flavored vegetarian dishes such as grilled or oven-roasted vegetables.
