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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.custom-html-container,\n.custom-html-container * {\n  background-color: transparent !important;\n  box-shadow: none !important;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Remove any inherited top margin *\/\n  \n}\n\n.custom-html-container {\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Ensure container has no top space *\/\n  padding-top: 0 !important;\n}\n\n.custom-html-container .global-button {\n  background-color: #35174D !important;\n  color: #ffffff !important;\n  border: 2px solid #35174D !important;\n  display: inline-flex;\n  padding: 25px 40px;\n  font-family: Futura, sans-serif;\n  font-size: 14px;\n  font-weight: 400;\n  line-height: 110%;\n  text-decoration: none;\n  cursor: pointer;\n  transition: background-color 0.3s ease, color 0.3s ease;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Explicitly remove top margin *\/\n}\n  \n.custom-html-container .global-button:hover {\n  background-color: #ffffff !important;\n  color: #35174D !important;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center;\" class=\"custom-html-container\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"global-button\" href=\"\/collections\/begalis-wines\"\u003eBrowse our Begali Lorenzo Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Whelehans Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57318220792152,"sku":"700256","price":22.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/begali-valpolicella-classico-ripasso-2023-red-wine-whelehans-wines-dublin-winestore.jpg?v=1779960459","url":"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/products\/begali-lorenzo-la-cengia-valpolicella-classico-superiore-ripasso-2023","provider":"Whelehans Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
