Sartori Brolo di Sotto Valpolicella Classico from Veneto is a refined, light to medium-bodied red offering aromas of tart wild strawberry, dried violet, and hints of crushed almond. It's dry with soft tannins and lively acidity. Serve it lightly chilled with bresaola and arugula as the wine's delicate fruit and savory depth will enhance the air-dried beef's subtle flavors beautifully, or pair it with roasted chicken with rosemary where the wine's elegant structure and herbal notes will complement the aromatic herbs perfectly. The current generation of Luca and Andrea Sartori leads this historic family winery founded in 1898 when their great-grandfather Pietro Sartori purchased Villa Maria, a vineyard with a small cellar attached in the heart of Valpolicella. The wine is crafted from indigenous varieties including Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella grown in the Montegradella vineyards north of Verona, fermented for 8-10 days at controlled temperatures before resting in cement and steel for 6-8 months. Enjoy now or cellar for 3-6 years.

Valpolicella Classico food pairings: bresaola with arugula, roasted chicken with rosemary, mushroom risotto.
