La Dama Vini Valpolicella Classico 2021
DOZEN: $324.00 or $27.00 each
Established by Gabriele and Miriam Dalcanele in 2006, La Dama represents the new breed of winemakers in the region. Modern, fresh yet compelling wines coaxed from organically farmed vineyards in the fabled commune of Negrar, home to some of the great names including the legendary Giuseppe Quintarelli.
Their 10 hectare estate has been certified organic since 2015 and works only with the native varieties of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Molinara. Oak influence is kept to a minimum in order to ensure the vineyard speaks for itself in the glass.
Still in the La Dama ethereal in style but this year with a little more breadth to the fruit and a little more concentration too which suits this perfectly. Lots of wild fruit, red currant and red berry fruits to the fore. A silky framework allows the fruit to shine here with cool red fruits pushed out the back of the palate with a little dark cherry and black berry fruit flourish. Its perky and bubbly like you would expect but there is a little more going on under the surface too. Another great drop.
