twitterSavvy wine buy: Palazzo della Torre ‘94 Valpolicella Classico Superiore
Wednesday, June 21, 2000 | 7:45 a.m.
Max Jacobson
The Allegrini family winery is in Veneto's Fumane in Valpolicella, an important center for wine in northeast Italy. Because Valpolicella Classico is a big production wine -- 350,000 cases plus -- the prices are usually reasonable, which is the case here. This is a pale, bright ruby-colored wine, with lots of delicate red fruit in the finish and an intensely peppery character. Italians love it with pasta, cheese or fruit, and its inherent lightness makes it quite pleasant when chilled.
Available exclusively at Lee's Discount Liquors, $7.99.
