Monte dall'Ora Valpolicella Classico Saseti 2025

Monte dall’Ora Valpolicella Classico Saseti is a lively, authentic expression of classic Veneto red wine, made from a traditional blend of native grapes including Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, Molinara and a touch of Oseleta. Known for its freshness, elegance and unmistakable sense of place, it reflects the long-standing Valpolicella tradition of crafting approachable yet characterful wines from the hills west of Verona.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Saseti typically shows a bright ruby-red color with youthful vibrancy. The nose is fragrant and inviting, often opening with red cherry, sour cherry, wild berries and floral notes, followed by hints of herbs, spice and a subtle earthy nuance. On the palate, it is usually light to medium-bodied, crisp and supple, with juicy red fruit, refreshing acidity and gentle tannins that make it exceptionally easy to drink. While best enjoyed for its freshness, it should also hold a pleasant short-term aging window, gaining a little more softness and complexity over the next few years.

Production
Monte dall’Ora farms in the Valpolicella Classico zone, where hillside vineyards and varied soils contribute to the wine’s finesse and energy. The estate is widely associated with a thoughtful, organic approach to viticulture, working with native varieties that are well suited to the local terroir. Vinification is typically geared toward preserving purity of fruit and regional character, with careful harvesting and a restrained cellar approach.

Food & Serving
Saseti is a versatile food wine that pairs beautifully with cured meats, pasta with tomato-based sauces, roasted poultry, mushroom dishes and semi-mature cheeses. Serve it slightly cool, around 14–16°C, to highlight its freshness and aromatics. Decanting is generally not necessary, though a short aeration can help open up the wine if served young.
