Ca' La Bionda is located in the commune of Marano di Valpolicella in the heart of the Classico zone of Valpolicella. Founded by Pietro Castellani in 1902, Ca' La Bionda has over 29 hectares of hillside vineyards at an altitude between 150 and 300 meters. Today the estate is in its fourth generation of family leadership. The soils of the vineyards are calcareous, composed primarily of marine sediment, which help give the wines a welcome freshness and verve. All grapes on their vineyards are grown organically — certified since 2016 — many on terraced vineyards, all of which are worked by hand.
The Valpolicella Classico is a blend of 70% Corvina, 20% Corvinone and 10% Rondinella and Molinara, fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged for three months before bottling. Enticing aromas of fresh red berry fruits intermingle with a violet floral note as they plume from the glass. On the palate this Valpolicella is light and elegant with loads of freshness complimented by bright flavors that lead into a crisp finish. The wine is extremely easy drinking and very versatile on the table. Enjoy with everything from simple pasta dishes to roast meats.
