The wine region of Valpolicella

Veronese Veneto, four styles of red around Corvina. Classic Valpolicella: fruity and light (cherry, kirsch, spice), thirst-quenching. Ripasso "re-passed" over Amarone marc: fleshier. Signature Amarone DOCG: grapes dried 120 days (appassimento), a powerful, opulent red (candied cherry, plum, chocolate), 15-16%, great ageing.


The wine region of Veneto

World star of Prosecco: fresh, light Glera sparklers with notes of pear, green apple and white flowers, fruity, convivial bubbles. Veronese reds from Corvina and Rondinella: light, crisp Bardolino, fruity Valpolicella, opulent, concentrated Amarone DOCG (black cherry, chocolate, raisin) from dried grapes. Mineral, almondy Soave (Garganega) whites, fresh Pinot Grigio. 97,500 ha, Italy's largest production.

The word of the wine: Cup (size in)

Specific to the Mediterranean vineyard, this short pruning which opens the stock in the shape of a corolla offers a good resistance to violent winds but does not allow any mechanization of the vine work.
