The Valpolicella region boasts numerous types of indigenous grapes that have been naturally selected over the last 2,000 years.

Each vineyard has its preference in regards to the types and quantity of grapes used in the production of their wines.

At each vineyard a local expert sommelier will conduct a tour of the vineyards' facilities so that you fully appreciate the unique methods of production utilized to make the very special wines of the Valpolicella.
