Drink or Keep
This Valpolicella Classico is a red made to be drunk young, fresh and fruity. King Theodoric considered it one of Italy's finest. The finest tribute to it was paid by Ernest Hemingway in one of his novels, where he speaks of it with great affection: "It is dry, red and friendly like a brother's home." What a reference!
