We are professional and winegrowers working togheter with a wholehearted cooperative spirit, for the good of our winegrowing region: Valpolicella, more specifically, Valpolicella Classica, the homeland of Amarone. We are the young people of today and of yesterday, united by a great sense of responsibility for our people and for the environment in which we work. Producers, aware and responsible for the wines we love.

The spirit is the same as that of the visionary cooperative founded in 1933 by the seven businessmen from Verona, just as the very same principles guide our work on a daily basis today and inspire every new project: initiative, reciprocity and collaboration.

Generations that work side by side: this is the strength of Cantina Valpolicella Negrar. It is the same strength that has enabled us to stride through history and become the benchmark producer when it comes to Amarone, Ripasso and the technique of Appassimento.

Energy and creativity on the one hand; on the other, the wisdom that comes from the experience of many vintages, leading to a generational renewal that takes place while we work together. Read more
