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.
Production Technique: The grapes are carefully selected at the time of harvest and are brought into a conservation room and immediately put into wooden boxes and settled on rush matting. The grapes must be positioned correctly so that the passerillage raising can take place completely and naturally. The first sign of “noble rot” appears at the end of November – beginning of December and develops mostly in January.
Vinification-Ageing: At the end of January pressing begins and after about 20 days of maceration, the alcoholic fermentation begins through indigenous yeasts. Fermentation follows and lasts for 45 days. Afterwards, it is put into medium-small Slavonian oak barrels, where it matures for seven years.
Tasting Notes: Intense aroma with delicate notes of bitter almonds with undertones of cherry.
