Howard Vineyard Ca’ Botta Best Wines Under $50

A stunning Valpolicella made using the Ripasso method, or 'repass'. Highest quality, high altitude Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone are fermented on the pressed skins of an Amarone ferment, giving higher alcohols, colour and a good degree more complexity. Rich, dark and savoury, this beast offers cherries, chocolate, graphite, minerals, plum, blackberries and blueberries here, along with white pepper and cedar. A stunning red wine that pairs majestically with roast meat and ragu. Learn More

Lifted citrus, white peach and crème brûlée on the nose lead through to green apple and grapefruit spread across the palate, only interrupted momentarily with the melting toasty mouthfeel. Learn More

Super expressive strawberries, raspberries and cherry morph into citrus and stonefruit. The palate is creamy, the bead fine. To summarise, ‘Yum’! The Pinot Noir components comprise the superb and low yielding Burgundian clones of 777, 114 and 115. Both the Pinot and Chardy are planted at 470m above sea level. Learn More
