You will be welcomed and you will enjoy your private guided tour of the Cellars with a member of the Family that will have the pleasure of taking guests on a pleasant walk in the historic estate of Dante Alighieri’s descendants.
A dive into history that includes a visit to the “fruit” cellar and to the historic cellar full of fragrant cherry barrels according to the family tradition.
For each group of guests the book “Mr. Amarone “with a special autograph dedication and a wooden box containing 6 really special bottles:
The “Supervenetian” from a 250 years old winery.
This is an ancient wine, because it is a gentleman, and therefore cultured, poised and sophisticated, but it spans time and ethnicities to remain as contemporary as every classic.
Just like entire estate is a classic, which is after all a winery whose history has become both a paradigm both in the Veneto and in Italy… and whose relationship with Valpolicella seems to be the very epitome of the phrase genius loci”
(Leila Salimbeni, “Spirito DiVino” 2017).
Wine Spectator Top 100 judgement: n.8, 95 pts.
Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Serègo Alighieri
An elegant, impeccably balanced red, layering sculpted tannins with finely knit flavors of plumped black cherry, plum sauce, cured tobacco, dark chocolate and woodsy spice.
A rich vein of smoky minerality sings on the lasting finish.
Drink now through 2035. 3,750 cases made.
