This charming Valpolicella Superiore hails from Cantina Valpolicella Negrar which was founded by seven local producers in 1933. The Cantina has played a pivotal role in the local wine scene over the years, with the first ever Amarone bottled here in 1939. These days the cooperative has more than 200 members and specialises in characterful, authentic wines made using modern techniques and cutting-edge technology.
Domini Veneti is the label reserved for their very best wines like this elegant Valpolicella. The indigenous varieties are grown on the best hilly plots and the grapes are hand-harvested to optimise quality. Once in the winery the grapes are then left to dry out for 40 days prior to vinification. The young wine is then aged in the traditional way in large 50 hectolitre Slavonian oak casks for around 24 months followed by 6 months of ageing in the bottle.
This creates a graceful and complex Valpolicella Superiore with a generous full body, firm, well-developed tannins and intense notes of red cherry, dried fruit, dark chocolate and warming spice from the oak ageing. A great wine to hold in the cellar for a few more years or enjoy now with venison, roast beef or hearty red meat ragus served with fresh pasta.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
