Allegrini is one of the most important and authoritative wineries in Italy. Known for its production of Valpolicella Classica, the Allegrini winery boasts one hundred hectares of vineyards located on the hills of Fumane, Sant'Ambrogio and San Pietro in Cariano.
Belonging to the family of the same name since the 16th century, the Allegrini winery is located in the Valpolicella Classica area: in particular, it is situated where vines such as corvina, molinara and rondinella give life to what are considered some of the best red wines of the Peninsula. xtraWine offers numerous bottles of Allegrini Allegrini wines that stand out for their refinement and elegance, very pleasant and capable of enveloping you with every sip, conquering even the most demanding palates. This is due to continuous improvements in production such as the introduction of the use of barriques alongside the traditional large barrels, and even a reduction in the ageing period so as not to alter too much the quality of the grapes used.
Not only Valpolicella, on xtraWine you can find Allegrini wines such as Amarone, Valpolicella and Recioto. Read more

| Fermentation | 15 days. |
| Production technique | The year 2022 was different from previous years. It was already dry in February and March, which led to the season being brought forward by about 20 days in late spring. The sun, excessive heat and lack of rain made the situation critical; only emergency irrigation made it possible for the grapes to ripen. The first days of August and the rains that fell between 6 and 13 August brought relief, reversing the course of the vintage. The veraison phase was speeded up and almost all the grapes were able to ripen, also thanks to the increase in the night temperature range that occurred in the second half of August. |
| Wine making | Vinification takes place in steel tanks at a temperature of between 20 and 25 °C. Fermentation takes 15 days, with gentle extractions. |
| Aging | Maturation takes place for 16 months. Fifty per cent of the wine is aged in second-passage barriques, while the further 50 per cent is refined in large 85 hl barrels. It spends a further 10 months in the bottle before release. |
