Palazzo della Torre IGT 2018 Allegrini

An easy-drinking bend of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Sangiovese, the Allegrini 2018 Palazzo della Torre is a medium-bodied red with dark fruit aromas, Morello cherry and dried blackberry. Like other wines from this vintage, the wine is a bit compact and short in terms of mouthfeel, but there is enough momentum to pair with a classic spaghetti with meat ragù.

A solid core of curranty fruit with smoky and spicy notes that add complexity. Full-bodied with good balance of smoky fruit and well-integrated, velvety tannins. Drive and length to this. Nicely done.

A balanced, medium-bodied red, with flavors of ripe black cherry and black currant fruit and an aromatic overtone of melted licorice and medicinal herbs. Light tannins show on the spiced finish. Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Sangiovese.

The 2018 Palazzo della Torre comes to life in the glass with a vibrant mix of balsam herbs, black cherries and cloves. It’s cool-toned in feel, yet silky and stacked with dark fruits and exotic spices. A tantalizing mix of zesty acids and minerals keeps the energy high, as the 2018 tapers off potent yet completely balanced and fresh. The Palazzo della Torre is fantastic, especially at this price point.
