A beautiful red wine from the famed Quintarelli estate that's made from the known trio of grapes: Corvina, Rodinella, and Molinara. "Primofiore" means "first flowering". This is made from the first round of grape harvesting from the vines used for the Cà del Merlo. This is meant to be consumed young and boasts aromas of Gaeta olives, cherries, spice and vanilla.

Staff Pick Notes

Certain wines have that "it" factor, something you can't quite describe with traditional wine language. They evoke a deep emotion within you, and surely you can attempt to describe the gorgeous aromas and flavors of cherries, violets, and spices, but much like your favorite perfume, you just have to smell it to understand. Quintarelli is a legendary estate in Valpolicella, one that sets the standard for quality in the region famous for Amarone. This bottling combines the local grapes of Corvina and Corvinone blended with the French grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, with little aging intended to preserve freshness. And my goodness, when you experience this wine, it will change you. They have captured magic.

Glossary

Corvina

The red Corvina grape (a.k.a. Corvina Veronese) is the most widely planted grape in Italy's Valpolicella and Bardolino regions. In recent years, it has gained momentum as the best grape for making Amarone.
