Ca dei Maghi is a small farm in the hills of Valpolicella making very small quantities of the most exquisite wines. Although started in the 1950's it is only since 2011 when Paolo Creazzi took over the reins that this estate has gone from being 'good' to outstanding. Each year he seeks to express classical Valpolicella at its very best while his natural inclination to experiment and try new things is shown in the small range of IGT wines produced.
The brilliant and ruby red colour in the glass foretells a fresh and elegant wine that does not, however, neglect characteristics like richness and structure which typify the denomination. The nose reveals notes of slightly wilted red flowers, such as wild violet and rosehip, with slight hints of currant at the finish. On the palate, the wine enters in a delicate, broad and dry way, with vivid and elegant tannins.
