Today the company advises and coordinates the activity of around 200 grape growers, across a total of 500 hectares, all located on the hillsides of the Valpolicella Classico region to the North West of Verona.
Cultivation, aimed at the utmost respect for the natural environment and the safeguarding of vocations and biodiversity, is directed towards particular productions, allowing the vinification of individual vineyards and selections.
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.
Cantina Valpolicella Negrar's overall production today exceeds 8 million bottles per year, resulting from more than 60,000 quintals of grapes delivered on average, for a cellar capacity of 100,000 hectolitres. Read more
