Description

70/80% of the quality of the wine is in the vineyard, but these great wines, obtained by drying of different varieties of grapes, are the result of "blend" that require long ageing and that will give their best after 10 more years. The worldwide success of these wines are the most obvious proof, if it were needed.

  • Start up year: 1900
  • Bottles produced: 35.000
  • Hectares: 10
The company is located in the foothills of Negrar approximately 350 meters above sea level. The landscape is typical of Valpolicella with its vineyards, olive groves and cherry trees, an air almost of another era, a rurality that was in danger of being lost, but thanks to people like 'El Bepi' it has been preserved. His grandson Francesco said that the wines are still made the way his grandfather made them by ageing and maturing them slowly for eight years in large wooden barrels and in bottles. Read more

Origin The winery is located on the hills of Negrar about 350 mt. above sea level.
Climate Only in good years or exceptional ones Amarone is produced. In years considered of medium quality Amarone is downgraded and bottled as Rosso del Bepi.
Yield per hectare 8000kg/h some of which 15% / 30% are selected to produce Recioto, Amarone or Rosso del Bepi.
Harvest The grapes, carefully selected at the time of harvest, are brought into the loft and immediately put to rest in wooden boxes and on racks.
Wine making Towards the end of January the grapes are treaded and after about 20 days of maceration, alcoholic fermentation begins, endeavors of indigenous yeasts. Fermentation takes place very slowly and lasts about 45 days. After that is drawn off, the wine is put in medium-small oak casks, with its own maturation for seven years. During this time other alcoholic fermentations occur which could achieve a dry wine of great structure and complexity.
Aging Maturation for 8 years in large wooden barrels and bottled.
Allergens Contains sulphites
