Of the family’s 90 hectares, 42 hectares of the land is dedicated to their vineyards, which guarantees that each has the finest and most suitable soils. The wines run the whole range of the Valpolicella spectrum, from the anything- -but-basic Classico and Classico Superiore, which establish a house style of vibrant, bright cherry fruit and ripe, elegant tannins, up to the epic dry Amarone and sweet Recioto. These latter two are made from grapes that are dried out almost to raisins in aerated lofts, concentrating the intensity of flavour.
