AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA

DOCG CLASSICO

SINGLE VINEYARD “I COMUNALI”

In ancient times, on the hills of the Valpolicella Classica, it was the custom for the town to gather poor people once a week and dispense them food, especially during the period of winter when the supplies were running low.

These small pieces of land where these gatherings took place were later known as “I Comunali”, lands where today grapes of this prestigious Amarone, are cultivated with great care.

Deep ruby red colour with an intense, full and rich bouquet.

Rounded on the palate with classic black cherry flavours and a long, complex finish.

Ideal with roasts, game and cheese, but also a great wine to sip slowly in company.

AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA

DOCG XIX

Amarone Villalta is a blend of the Veneto’s traditional grape varieties like Corvina and Rondinella.

The individual bunches are laid one by one onto tiered mats in airy lofts, where they are dried for four months until the sugars, tannins and aromas have become concentrated.

The wine spends around two years in traditional oak barrels before release.

Deep red, intense bouquet, rich, full, well-rounded palate, with classic black cherry flavours.

Very long, complex finish.

An excellent partner to red meats and mature cheese.

LUGANA

DOC

Villalta Lugana comes from vineyards in the South of Lake Garda.

This gently balanced and uniquely fresh wine is perfect to be served with freshwater fish and refined meats.

Also ideal on its own.

MACISTE

ROSSO VENETO IGT

Maciste was a draft-horse part of a small vintners family in Italy after the Second World War. He was mighty and tireless taking charge, day by day, of the heaviest works in the vineyards.

We dedicate this wine to the memory of this gentle giant as a tribute to the tough work of making genuine and true wines.

Juicy and rich, with cherry and plum notes, a vibrant freshness in a long and smooth taste, this wine is made from local varieties by the old tradition of the Appassimento process, with a light drying of the grapes.

SOAVE

DOC

Fresh and zingy, this Soave is dry, delicately flavoured and very refreshing.

Made from grapes grown around the small town of Soave, this is the perfect wine for sipping on its own or for drinking with seafood dishes.

VALPOLICELLA

DOC

This Valpolicella is made from the classic blend of grapes from the Veneto region in northern Italy like Corvina and Rondinella.

Reminiscent of red summer fruits, this wine goes perfectly with barbequed white meats and can be enjoyed chilled on summer evenings.

VALPOLICELLA RIPASSO

DOC SUPERIORE

Villalta Valpolicella Ripasso is made using the unique “Ripasso” technique, where the wine is passed over the semi-dried grapes used to produce Amarone, thereby inducing a secondary fermentation. This wine is ripe and concentrated wonderfully smooth and elegant with aromas of dark chocolate and roasted nuts.

An excellent partner to past red meats, game, stew and full flavoured mature cheeses.
