Giuseppe Quintarelli is a legendary estate located in the hills north of Verona in the heart of the Valpolicella appellation. It is regarded by many as the greatest of all Amarone producers and is known for its traditional deep, complex wines packaged with distinctive handwritten labels. The great man Quintarelli himself, known as il Maestro del Veneto, died in 2012 aged 84 but the winery remains family-owned and managed.
Soils: The hills of Negrar form the backdrop to the well-ordered vineyards of the company, offering them a perfect natural setting. Abundant light, prolonged exposure and strong temperature variations between day and night characterize the terroir, whose climate is quite mild all year round. Soils draining and rich in minerals complete the picture.
Vinification: After manual harvesting, the grapes are left to dry on racks for about a month. At this point, after pressing, alcoholic fermentation can start with maceration on the skins which lasts for several months. Following the racking, the ageing takes place in Slavonian oak barrels for about one year.
Sensory Description: Bright ruby red in the glass, it gives the nose fresh hints of cherry and violet, on a base of herbaceous sensations linked to Cabernet Franc. Balanced and pleasant in the mouth, it closes in a long fruity memory.
Food Pairing: Grilled and roasted red meats, aged cheeses and savoury cured meats. Serving Temperature: 16-18 ° C
Case Bottles: 6
