We have been looking for a good and reasonably priced Valpolicella for a long time. At Restaurant La Divina in San Giorgio di Valpolicella we tried Pietro Junior from Agriocola Pietro Zardini - based on the recommendation of the waiter. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to visit Pietro Zardini and buy a few cartons to take back home. There are many wineries in the area and it is very difficult to choose one. We like to support the small wine producers and Zardini is one of them. Go and try there range of Valpolicellas, Amarones, Ripassos etc.

Visited Ugolini winery recently and enjoyed the lovely hospitality of Maria Giuditta who is the granddaughter of one of the key persons instrumental in developing the Ugolini winery. With an approach dedicated to organic techniques this visit allowed us to appreciate the remarkable efforts made to produce excellent wines. The indigenous grapes of Valpolicella are especially suited to the local terroir. The skill of the winemaker in blending the various grapes is what creates that magic in a bottle of Ugolini wine. Highlighted during the tour was the fascinating process of drying the grapes for the production of Amarone and Recioto. Ingeniously the common laborers of years ago took the leftover pomice from making Amarone and used it to improve the basic Valpolicella creating another great wine style Ripasso. We tasted the classic lineup including Valpolicella, Superiore, Ripasso, Recioto and Amarone. My favorite was the Ripasso with it's earthy, leathery medium to full bodied taste which begins to approach the weight and complexity of Amarone. However at the 20 Euros price point the Ripasso is a great value. The placemat used for the tasting is a nice souvenir. It is an artist's rendition of the Fumane valley depicting the Ugolini vineyards. Maria Giuditta could not have been nicer and she sang a beautiful Venetian song for my wife's birthday. 15 minutes away in San Giorgio Di Valpolicella we enjoyed a gorgeous panoramic sunset view of Lake Garda. Another great tip from Maria!

This is a must-stop destination if you love wine, and especially Amarone! Andrea once again gave us a great tasting experience, and we departed with a car full of cases of delicious vino! This visit we met Cencio, the patriarch of the family, who just came in after working in the vines that morning. Spada, we will be back!

Since the 18th century, our Name has always been closely connected to San Pietro in Cariano, the central and main village of the Classic Valpolicella area, one of the most charming and renowned wine districts in Italy. Located exactly between Verona and Lake Garda, Valpolicella perfectly represents the synthesis of many different elements. A mineral soil and rich in limestone, a rare and wonderful mosaic of indigenous grape varieties, a Mediterranean climate influenced by the breezes coming from the lake nearby and an ideal South-Southwest exposure which combines with a skillful and passionate work in the vineyards and with the appassimento technique, favouring the concentration of sugars and extractive substances. It is in this spot in the countryside, with its age-old vocation for growing vines, that our family has become one of the interpreters of Amarone and a guardian of a great winemaking heritage.
