Monte Dall'Ora, Valpolicella Classico Superiore San Giorgio Alto, 2020
San Giorgio Alto represents the elevation and sophistication Monte Dall'Ora can achieve in Valpolicella's finest sites. This cuvée comes from 500 meters elevation on limestone-dominated soils with perfect ventilation, creating significant day-night temperature differences that preserve freshness and complexity. The Valpolicella Classico Superiore designation (60% Corvina, 20% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella) carries additional ripeness and aging requirements. The 2020 shows "taut, cool, structured character with great precision and elegance"—a medium-bodied palate of fresh cherry and spice notes showcasing the whole spectrum of red fruit, spice, and fine herbs. The "whole lot of structure" indicates aging potential rarely found in Valpolicella—a wine that proves elevation and terroir matter in this storied appellation.
