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

| Harvest | ing is done manually, around the second ten days of September. The 2024 grape harvest confirmed the importance of strategic agronomic choices, in particular cultivation in hilly areas, which are fundamental for guaranteeing the quality and health of the grapes. After a mild winter and a rainy spring with below-average temperatures, the summer saw a sudden increase in heat, requiring careful water management to avoid stressing the vines. September brought milder temperatures and wide temperature ranges, favouring aromatic complexity. The adoption of climate monitoring technologies made it possible to optimise treatments and improve sustainability. The harvest, which began in early September, saw a balanced ripening, with healthy grapes of excellent quality. |
