This \u003cstrong\u003eblend\u003c\/strong\u003e of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Molinara displays a ruby red colour and intense aromas of cherry and plum, enriched by floral notes of violet and hints of vanilla and black pepper. On the palate, it is fresh and fruity, supported by a \u003cstrong\u003evelvety tannic structure\u003c\/strong\u003e that perfectly balances body and natural acidity. Its persistence makes it ideal for pairing with \u003cstrong\u003eragù-based pasta dishes\u003c\/strong\u003e, roast meats, grilled dishes and medium-aged cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt originates in the heart of the \u003cstrong\u003eValpolicella Classica\u003c\/strong\u003e, on the hills of the municipality of Negrar. The vineyards are situated between 250 and 450 metres above sea level, with optimal south-east and south-west exposure. The soils are varied, predominantly clay-loam with calcareous inclusions and volcanic components that enhance the expressiveness of the grapes. The vines are trained using the \u003cstrong\u003edouble pergola\u003c\/strong\u003e system, with low yields to encourage optimal ripening. These conditions ensure the wine has a solid \u003cstrong\u003estructural balance\u003c\/strong\u003e and preserves the aromatic freshness typical of the Veneto region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe process begins with a rigorous \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e carried out between September and early October. After destemming and crushing, fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature. The ten-day maceration involves punch-downs and \u003cstrong\u003escheduled pump-overs\u003c\/strong\u003e, essential for extracting colour and phenolic compounds. This is followed by malolactic fermentation, which softens the wine's profile. Production concludes with natural stabilisation and \u003cstrong\u003ematuration in wooden barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e and steel tanks, a technical choice aimed at preserving the integrity and freshness of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1933, Domini Veneti embodies the winemaking excellence of the Verona region.
