The winery best expresses its oenological expertise acquired over time with the production of various types of Amarone, Recioto and Valpolicella. The range then expands to include high quality Soave, Bianco di Custoza and Bardolino wines, produced through historical collaboration with producer partners in these other famous Veronese wine-growing areas.
