La Giaretta Valpolicella DOC Volpare 2022 Veneto, Italy
La Giaretta Valpolicella DOC Volpare 2022 is a fresh, refined red wine from Valpolicella, made from Rondinella, Corvinone, Corvina, and Molinara. Volpare is La Giaretta's wine that is closest to its origin: bright ruby red, smooth, fruity, and made for broad versatility at the table. With its cherry fruit, fresh taste, and 13% alcohol, this is an accessible Valpolicella for those seeking an Italian red that doesn't have to be heavy.
Vineyards and region
Volpare comes from Valpolicella, the historic wine region north of Verona in Veneto.
• Location / Origin: La Giaretta is located in Valgatara, in the municipality of Marano di Valpolicella. This places the winery in the heart of the area where the classic Valpolicella grapes originate.
• Region: Valpolicella is strongly linked to local grapes such as Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Molinara. These grapes precisely define the fresh, fruity, and smoothly spicy style of the region.
• Estate: The family behind La Giaretta still tends its own vineyards. This ensures that the Volpare style remains close to its origin and to the character of Valpolicella.
Grape composition
La Giaretta Volpare is made from 4 classic grape varieties from Valpolicella.
• Rondinella – Valpolicella: Rondinella gives color, fruitiness, and a smooth base to the wine.
• Corvinone – Valpolicella: Corvinone adds spiciness, structure, and aromas of dark cherry.
• Corvina – Valpolicella: Corvina forms an important backbone of Valpolicella, bringing structure, aroma, and softness.
• Molinara – Valpolicella: Molinara complements the blend with freshness and a savory, juicy touch.
Tasting notes and serving suggestions
In the glass, Volpare is bright ruby red, with a delicate aroma of cherries. The taste is balanced and refined, with fresh fruit notes and a smooth, pure structure. The finish remains light-footed, juicy, and pleasantly drinkable.
• Serving temperature: Serve this Valpolicella at around 18 °C, allowing the cherry fruit, fresh taste, and soft structure to blend beautifully.
• Dishes: Delicious with antipasti, charcuterie, pasta with tomato sauce, light meat dishes, poultry, pizza, and semi-hard cheeses.
