Rondinella

Rondinella is a dark grape variety from Veronese, widespread above all in the hilly area of Valpolicella, where it is used together with corvina and corvinone to produce the famous reds. It is a productive and resistant variety, which gives medium-sized clusters with berries characterized by a consistent skin, which allows a perfect drying of the grapes without the grains being damaged. It is rarely vinified in purity, usually it falls within the ampelographic base of Valpolicella, Amarone and Recioto wines.
