Monte dall'Ora 'Disobbediente' Rosso 1L 2023

'RESISTANT FARMER: BORN TO BE DISOBEDIENT'

That's the rough Italian translation of this wine's name. Classic Veneto Amarone producers make this fantastic vino quotadiano: a fresh, delicious red blend that graces their own tables, in a seriously quaffable liter format.

GRAPE 50% Corvina, 20% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella, 10% Molinara & Oseleta. 

REGION, COUNTRY Valpolicella, Italy

A very short maceration of the Valpolicella varieties. 

Biodynamically farmed vines in pergola on restored ancient terraces on the south-facing hill in front of the winery. 

+ PROFILE: Dry, light-medium body. Delightfully smooth and velvety, with dusty cherry, crunchy forest berry, fresh mossy forest, herbal-rosemary tones. Bright acidity. Serve with a light chill. 

+ FUNDAMENTALS: Hand-harvested. Wild yeast. Aged in concrete for 3-4 months. Unfined, unfiltered and zero added sulfur. Low, 10.5% ABV.

+ FUN FACT: Corvinone has been previously thought to be a biotype of Corvina, the theory being that it was a relation/variation on the same grape, but DNA profiling back from 1993 suggests that it is its own unique varietal.
