Azienda agricola Quintarelli Giuseppe

The company is located in Cer di Negrar, on Mount Cà Paletta, on the East side of the valley of Negrar. The exposition of the vineyards is in the west and the soil is made of limestone and basalt. The farming system of the vineyards, in the old plants, is “Verona Arbour”, and in the new ones, is Guyot. The company was founded at the beginning of the twentieth century with Silvio Quintarelli, who, along with his brothers, cultivated in sharecropping the vineyards of the Figri resort, in the town of Marano di Valpolicella. The wine produced was then exported to the U.S., in barrels of 50 liters, by the owner of the land. After the First World War, precisely in 1924, the company moved into the valley of Negrar, in the locality of Cer, where Silvio continues his activity with the precious help of his sons and his wife.

In the 50s, Giuseppe, the youngest of his children, took over the management of the company, to continue the family tradition, of the vineyard and the cellar. He renovated and specialized vineyards, increased barrels and requests. With time, the activity became increasingly large, but this did not distract the attention from the traditional method, which was strictly maintained, with constant love and dedication, along with his wife, his daughters and his loyal employees.

The years ranging from 1950 and 1955 were fundamental to the winery. Recioto was an important wine and, in the case of a less generous vintage that gave a more dry wine, they tried anyway to store it for subsequent years.

This experience led to a “method”, which led to a wine, Amarone, of high quality and discovered and appreciated by important connoisseurs. Amarone has been created from respect for nature, in the cultivation of the vine, from a patient and careful selection of grapes and a strong bond with tradition. In the 80s, following a reorganization of the property with the purchase of new vineyards, production was optimized and important changes in the selection of the grapes, and hence in production, were made. Since 1985, in effect, varieties of grapes such as Nebbiolo, Croatina, Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc are regularly used, with excellent results. Another wine has been created: Alzero, fruit of experience and awareness in the technical drying of grapes, traditional of Valpolicella. Two features accompany the wines produced by the company: a natural predisposition to a long aging, which leads to improve the product for even more than twenty years, and a surprising liveliness, which express themselves for a long time after the opening of the bottle.

L'Arco

The company owes its name to a stone arch called the Arch of Jupiter, clearly visible from the road that leads to Negrar (one of the five towns in the historical Valpolicella), next to which there is the farmhouse where, until a few years ago, the Fedrigo family lived.

The arch, dating back to the sixteenth and seventeenth century was part of a series of 7 arches, along a path in the hilly area in the San Vito di Negrar locality. This name evokes in Luca Fedrigo memories of the past that he wanted to hand down the wines that are produced.

Luca, working for years for a prestigious winery in Valpolicella, to which he owes its experience and gratitude, is proposed as a young company but with an ancient heart, dynamic and well structured, careful to offer a unique product for its origins while maintaining the traditions that bind the wines of Valpolicella.

Much gratitude and friendship bind Luca to Luiz Alberto Barichello, wine producer in Brazil, Argentina and Tuscany (www.villabari.com.br) with which the winery has always worked.

In 2001, together, they created two important IGT wines, Rubeo and Pario, which are highly valued, both in European countries and also in North and South America, because of the particular composition of different grapes, among which the Amarone grapes, to say, Rondinella, Corvina and Molinara, stand out.
