Zenato Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2020
The Wine
Radiant with a ruby red hue, this Valpolicella Superiore exudes succulent scents of wild berries, black currants, black cherries, and a medley of spices, complemented by undertones of chocolate. It presents a dry, full-bodied taste on the palate, accompanied by a velvety texture.
This wine pairs splendidly with antipasti, arrabbiata sauces, seared sashimi tuna, or orange-glazed duck.
90/100 James Suckling : Vibrant nose with spiced cherries, plums, dried herbs, cloves and some bark. It’s medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and juicy cherries. Fruity and caressing mouth-feel, before a medium finish.

Founded in 1960 by Sergio and Carla Zenato, the Zenato winery was originally based on the production of quality wines from an indigenous varietal, Trebbiano di Lugana. Over time, the winery has been passed to Sergio and Carla’s children, who have maintained and expanded upon this vision. Their daughter Nadia currently handles the marketing and promotional activity for the company, while their son Alberto oversees all aspects of production, from the growing of the vines to the completion of the bottling process.
