This richness translates into a full, enveloping taste with a long, complex, and warming finish.

    STORY BEHIND THE LABEL 

    Considered the ultimate expression of Valpolicella, Lorenzo Begali’s Amarone Classico is a masterclass in traditional winemaking. Crafting it is a complex art form, requiring meticulous care across multiple vineyard plots to cultivate and harvest a precise blend of the regional "queen grape" Corvina, its balancing relative Corvinone, Rondinella, and Oseleta. After vinification, the wine is aged for an extended period in oak barrels and tonneaux before getting a few final months of bottle refinement to create a truly masterful classic.

    The Begali Estate (10 hectares) is situated in the DOC of Valpolicella in a small hamlet called Cengia. Here, the terroir is particularly conducive to producing intense, fragrant wines. Since the early 1900s, the Begali family has passed their learnings and love of the land tradition from generation to generation. Giordano Begali began to produce wine after the Second World War, is succeeded at the helm by his son Lorenzo and his wife Adriana.
