It just rolls off the tongue.
And it may be the best wine region in Italy you've never heard of.
Or maybe you have?
Either way you'll want to tune into this episode to find out all about the Valpolicella wines and all about the region that is so beautiful and peaceful.
We'll learn about the different wines made here — from the light, fruity Valpolicella Classico to the big, bold Amarone.
And I'll also talk about some of the best vineyards to visit as well as places to stay and to eat.
