When Alessandra and Carlo Venturini first discovered Monte dall’Ora it was love at first sight.
As children of farmers, they were excited and challenged by the hard work it was going to take
to restore these ancient vineyards. Located in Castellroto, in the hills outside of Verona, the
vineyards of Monte dall’Ora are in a natural amphitheatre facing southeast towards the city.
In fact, sections of their vineyards are planted on ancient dry-stone terraces called “marogna,”
a design in which large stones form the exterior support structure and smaller stones form a
spit of land in the interior. This brittle stone, in which fossils and petrified shells can be found,
allows for excellent drainage and deep penetration of the vines.
Ruby red with purple reflections. The nose expresses red fruit and cherry with notes of mint. The palate is juicy, fresh, and light.
Try with cotechino sausage, rabbit, or even Baccala alla Vicentina (salt cod or stockfish cooked in milk and eaten with polenta).
