2023 Valpolicella Classico Superiore



2023 Valpolicella Classico Superiore An expression of its soil and vintage, Tirele is a straightforward and lively wine, where spices find their right balance with red fruits, leaving room for floral and balsamic hints. Production focuses on exalting the tannic texture and making the aromatic elements more sophisticated to achieve a wide and intriguing bouquet. This is a traditional style of Superiore with moderate alcohol and only stainless steel used as its ageing vessel. The vineyards of Tenuta Villa Bellini cover four hectares of land, all surrounded by walls: a treasure trove, an extraordinary combination of soils and different growing methods. We have always grown our wines organically and made them exclusively with our own grapes, for a wine with a typical character. The bio-diverse vineyards are about 150 meters above sea level, with eastern and south-eastern exposure on hilly slopes.
