Product notes

Palazzo della Torre is a signature wine of the entire Allegrini range, where all of Franco’s extensive experience meets his creative flair. Celebrated by the world’s most important wine magazines, Palazzo della Torre is one of the wines that has made Allegrini famous internationally.

70% of the grapes are fermented in September (following a normal red wine fermentation with destemming), while the remaining 30% undergoes a gentle drying process. Those grapes are vinified in December and then the two resulting wines are wisely blended before the ageing that occurs for a minimum of 15 months in barriques.
