Bertani 1857
Bertani was founded in 1857 by Bertani brothers, in Quinto di Valpantena, to the north of Verona. From the very beginning, they used the most advanced production techniques, both in vinegrowing and winemaking, and applied them to all their properties, from Valpantena to Soave, with total respect for the territory.
In the mid-twentieth century, with the purchase of Tenuta Novare in Valpolicella Classica, Bertani conducted research lasting half a century to produce the Wine that was made to last forever. This is where the history of Amarone begins – a wine that symbolizes the territory it comes from. Moreover, the winery owns one of the deepest wine library in the world: 48 old vintages of Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, from 1958 to 2012.
Today the winery keeps doing what the founders did then, that is, making wines that are recognizable and have an identity, wines with a clear stylistic profile that makes them unmistakable.
