Valpolicella Classico DOC

Guiseppe Quintarelli - Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2016

The Giuseppe Quintarelli estate is located in Verona, in the Veneto region of Italy . The estate dates from 1924 but it was Giuseppe Quintarelli (known as Bepi, in charge from the mid-1950s until his death in 2012) who made it successful. Giuseppe established his reputation with the traditional style of Amarone, aging it for seven years in Slavonian oak; the result is one of the most complex wines produced in Italy. Although he is traditional in his production of Amarone, it does not follow that Giuseppe is afraid of innovation. In addition to Amarone, it produces a dry white wine called Bianco Secco and a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Corvina labeled Primo Fiore. Giuseppe's daughter, Fiorenza , her husband, Giampaolo Grigoli , and their children Francesco and Lorenzo , are currently involved in the management of the estate.

Valpolicella Classico Superiore is a blend of Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella . Half of the grapes are directly pressed after harvest, and the other half are left to dry in the open air for 2 months. After 3 to 4 days of maceration, a first fermentation begins with native yeasts. The wine is racked and left to rest for a few months. It is then transferred to the must of an Amarrone wine, where a second alcoholic fermentation begins; This method is called “Ripasso”. The wine is then aged for 7 years in large Slavonian oak barrels .

Grape varieties: Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella
