The best wineries in Fumane.
Azienda Agricola Valentina Cubi is located near the city of Verona, in the hills of Valpolicella. The business, of family ownership, is run by the owner that gives it her name, Valentina Cubi, and consists of 13 hectares of vineyards, olive groves and orchards. The vineyards are in conversion towards organic farming and produce the raw materials for the manufacture of authentic Valpolicella, Amarone and Recioto: wines based on the native grape Corvina.
The Scriani farm in Fumane is a little gem in the heart of Valpolicella, a fertile land of flavors and traditions, outlined by the rows of its renowned vineyards and grounded in the undulating landscape of rolling hills.
The Cottini family have been farmers for generations, founding their own work on the values of the peasant culture. Their passion for the land and the deep awareness of their roots have given them for years the most authentic sense of the life of each member.
Vineyards and grapes
Mandolari, Bosco, Carpan, Tondin, La Costa are grounds that include vines of an age between nine and forty years, cultivated with arbor method, single or double, for a total density of three thousand plants per hectare. Ronchiel is the latest, it has a density of four thousand and five hundred vines per hectare.
The vineyards are located in a way which takes into account not only the characteristics of the soil, but also the configuration of the surrounding forests.
The flagship of the Scriani production, Amarone, is aged eighteen months in barriques, and subsequently eight months in oak barrels and aged in bottles for another six months.
A prestigious selection that combines body, scents and tastes, from mild to intense, with unique hints given by the variety of grapes used: Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara and others. Awards and recognitions obtained in prestigious events are the most tangible evidence that the Scriani company works with commitment and seriousness and is one of the most influential names in the Italian wine scenery.
I belong to the fifth generation of vinegrowers and winemakers of Valpolicella. Amarone, Recioto, Valpolicella in itself, are known by experts all over the world. This success has established itself thanks to families like mine, which over time have worked with dedication on the pursuit of quality. When you continue a family tradition, on the one hand there is the fear of change and on the other hand there is the desire to do something new, to leave a mark.
I created my new company in Fumane in the heart of Valpolicella Classica, where the elements to produce well are all there, from the soil to the climate. As everything that is alive, wine, the result of a constant evolution; I try to guide this evolution in my own way, Secondo Marco.
The Allegrini family has been protagonist of the history of Fumane and Valpolicella since the sixteenth century and, since then, hands down the culture of vine and wine. Notarial documents attest that it covered a prominent role in the local community and mention it as one of the most important families of landowners, that has always been linked to the agricultural work and the enhancement of the rural tradition.
They tell a nice story in the hills of Fumane. The story of grace received: it was 1860 and the local farmers, as a votive offering to the Virgin Mary for having freed their vineyards from the scourge of phylloxera, erected in honor of her the shrine of La Salette.
A church that leans, protective, over the village, climbing on a rock, surrounded by hills and vineyards. Some of these extend to just below the sacred building and has always belonged to a "historical" family of winemakers in the Valpolicella area: the Scamperle family, owner of the company which is called just like the Shrine. Also theirs is a beautiful story, which tells years of loyalty and passion for the land, especially for viticulture.
Indeed, for generations, the Scamperle family has been dedicating to the cultivation of vineyards, whose number was gradually increased over the years. Today there are twenty hectares of property, more scattered in the corners suited the Valpolicella Classica DOC: Fumane Cà Carnocchio, I Progni and Cà Melchiori, Sant’Ambrogio Conca D’Oro and in San Floriano Monte Masua. The grapes that are grown are the most classic of the area: corvina, corvinone, rondinella, oseleta, a little bit of molinara and croatina. A slow and prudent growth, in line with a peasant culture that does not force the hand of nature, but follows its rhythms to enhance its characteristics and originality.
La Salette has never stopped, finding its reason for being in the stubborn and constant pursuit of quality; an effort, this, shared by the whole family. In a family business there is always a lot of work, often without a truce, but there is always time for a friend who comes to find them, or for a guest that passes. The door of the Scamperle House and of La Salette is always open: to the excellence of produce and to friendliness.
This is also the reason why their wines are so good: Valpolicella, Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso "I Progni", IGT Veronese "Cà Carnocchio", Amarone and Recioto della Valpolicella, White Raisin "Caesar", the single–variety Molinara and, only in great vintages, "Pergolas Vece", both Amarone and Recioto.
From the estate of Corte di Saline, Mondragon and Fumane, where vineyards have been cultivated for centuries, the Count Luigi Fratta Pasini produces grapes of rare quality, that are turned into wines of exellence in our cellars, in the heart of Valpolicella Storica.
Azienda Agricola Dindo is located in the heart of Valpolicella Classica, on a famous hill called Monte Sant’Urbano, in Fumane. From here you can admire the beautiful and fascinating views that cover the entire Valpolicella, the neighboring city of Verona, until you reach the beautiful Lake Garda.
The main vineyards of property are located in the most suited area in Valpolicella, at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level, showing a terraced landscape with dry stone walls.
Corteforte was built at the beginning of the fifteenth century, in a strategic point in the valley of Fumane, in the district of Osan. It was originally made up of four side towers connected by a high wall in stone and was an important defensive garrison against the incursions from the north.
In the seventeenth century the estate became owned by a noteworthy family of Verona, that turned it into a noble countryside residence. It was embellished with decorations and expanded with the construction of cottages. Of the four towers, now there is only a crenellated tower.
The estate was completely restored in late 80s and partly converted into a farmhouse inn and wine cellar.
Under the old buildings there the is the old wine cellar, used for the fining of wine in the bottle. The modern vinification was built in a modern and adjoining cottage, with controlled temperature, to allow wine to ferment and mature in basins made of steel, before moving on to a long aging in tonneaux and oak barrels. The oak barrels are of 3.5 hl while those of French oak range from 5 to 25 hl.
