"This is one of my favorite wines from Allegrini because I am fascinated by some of Italy's monovarietal wines made from grapes we usually only see in blends. It's fun to deconstruct a wine, and tasting Corvina on its own teaches us what it adds or doesn't add to blended wine like Amarone. The 2016 Corvina Veronese La Poja is fresh and angular, with a solid center of gravity and good depth. It's not especially aromatic, although you do get dried cherry, plum and spice. It offers smoky tones of tar and earth, and there's balanced acidity on the close."
