About this wine
A biodynamic Valpolicella Classico Superiore from Monte Dall'Ora's finest parcels on ancient limestone terraces, made from the region's traditional varieties using the ripasso technique and aged to express the full complexity of this remarkable estate.
Open 15 minutes before serving. No need to decant, this wine is generous from the moment it is poured.
Tasting notes
Bright cherry-ruby in the glass. The nose is fresh and expressive with aromas of ripe cherry, wild herbs, violet, and a light earthy, mineral note from the limestone soils. On the palate it is medium bodied with a beautiful balance of fruit and acidity, firm but refined tannins, and a long, savoury finish. This is Valpolicella as it was always meant to be, before Amarone dominated the conversation.
Goes with
Outstanding with pasta al ragu, roast chicken, veal escalope, grilled lamb, and aged cheeses. One of Italy's most versatile food wines.

The producer
Monte Dall'Ora is the life project of Carlo Venturini and his wife Alessandra Zantedeschi, both from vigneron families in Valpolicella, who founded the estate in 1995 in Castellroto in the hills above Verona. Working 9 hectares of ancient dry stone terraces on cool southeast-facing limestone soils, they farm entirely biodynamically and work only with traditional indigenous varieties including the nearly-extinct Oseleta. They are one of the true natural wine pioneers of Valpolicella, in a region dominated by oak-laden commercial Amarone.
