Valpolicella

The northern Italian area of Valpolicella is famed for its red wines. Located in Verona to the east of Lake Garda, the principal grapes here are Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara. Valpolicella is tangy and cherry-fresh, perfect with pizza and pasta. Classico and Superiore wines from hillside vineyards offer extra depth and spice notes. But for real complexity, look to Amarone della Valpolicella. Made from partially dried grapes (called "appassimento"), this full-bodied wine offers gorgeous fruit flavors and ages for at least two years in oak. There is also Valpolicella Ripasso, a wine made by putting Valpolicella through pressed Amarone grapes. The DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) designation for Italian wines was introduced in the 1960s. It is the main classification system used in the country and regulates what winemakers can and cannot do regarding wine style, varietal restrictions, minimum and maximum alcohol levels, aging techniques and growing regions.
