Description

Painstaking selection of the grapes at harvest, which are then placed in the drying process to concentrate the essence of the fruit. A slow alcoholic fermentation, conducted from the start at low temperature, to maintain the greatest possible aromatic integrity and the terroir characteristics of this particular area of Valpolicella. It is with these assumptions that San Giorgio was born.

From this winery
Our winery covers an area of 14 hectares over looking the famous village of St. Giorgio Ingannapoltron, known around the world for its marvelous ancient church, cloister, and archeological excavation. In the beginning, the late Carlo Boscaini (who lived to the venerable age of 102 drinking wine in modest quantity but high quality) produced wine with great passion, his son Arturo Ernesto supporting him.

In our day we, his nephews Carlo and Mario, continue this old and passionate pursuit, introducing new technologies and new avant-garde processing both in wineyards and in the winery.

We only sell wine from our own grapes production, our vineyards are cultivated in a traditional way with little modern equipment, and minimum use of chemical products. We produce about 60.000 bottles of VALPOLICELLA, VALPOLICELLA SUPERIORE, VALPOLICELLA SUPERIORE RIPASSO, AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA DOCG, RECIOTO DELLA VALPOLICELLA DOCG. Read more
