Le Calendre - Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2020

Key words: Elegant / Fruity / Fragrant

Wine:What a delicious Valpolicella! Domaine Le Calendre delights us here with this beautiful bottle full of finesse. The nose is very charming and emerges from the glass of sweet aromas of cherry and raspberry as well as a floral (violet) and peppery touch. The palate agrees, offering very pure fruitiness and intense concentration. A light woody underlines a delicate ensemble, low in tannin and very fragrant. An excellent wine with a beautiful presence that will go wonderfully with charcuterie, red meats and other refined Italian dishes.

The Estate: The Estate The Calendre is a family farm with 4 hectares extending over the municipality of San Pietro in Cariano, north of Verona and in the heart of the DOC Valpolicella Classico. Here, the vines are cultivated thanks to a system of pergolas providing the grapes with more light and wind, thus favoring maturity and making it possible to avoid certain diseases. At the estate, the work is hand-sewn and every detail is important, from the care given to the vines throughout the year to the precision of the smallest gesture during vinification. Although not officially certified, the cultivation methods such as the techniques used in the winery are similar to organic farming. Discover this small estate producing wines of great finesse and worthily representing the region as well as its Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Molinara grape varieties.
