The Valpolicella Superiore DOC - Maternigo - Tedeschi is a red wine that celebrates the excellence of the Verona area with precision and care reflected in every sip. This wine comes from grapes cultivated in the exclusive Maternigo estate, an area particularly suited for the extraordinary quality of the grapes, made possible by an ideal microclimate and well-drained soils.

The Valpolicella Superiore by Tedeschi expresses a fascinating olfactory complexity, with notes of cherry, small red fruits, and a subtle spicy hint that comes from aging 18 months in large wooden barrels. The result is a perfectly balanced aroma that invites a rich and persistent tasting experience.

On the palate, the Maternigo is structured yet soft, with a freshness that reflects the vitality of its grapes. The tannins are finely worked, offering a velvety texture that beautifully complements a range of flavors, from those of ripe fruit to delicate hints of vanilla and chocolate, resulting from the elegant aging process.

This Valpolicella Superiore DOC is ideal for pairing with richly flavored dishes, such as roasted red meats, mushroom-based dishes, or aged cheeses. Its versatility also makes it suitable for enjoying on its own, perhaps as a companion for reflection at the end of a day.

Purchasing this product is not just an act of love towards high-quality wines, but also a tribute to Tedeschi's dedication to meticulous care and the art of winemaking.

Winery history
The Tedeschi family has been linked to Valpolicella for centuries: company records and accounts document winemaking activity as early as the 17th century, and the estate has progressively developed the concept of single-vineyard wines, vinifying parcels separately — such as Monte Olmi. Today the estate remains family-run and has complemented tradition with investments in vineyard zoning and collaborations with research institutes to better understand soils and micro-terroirs.
Production philosophy
Making wines that reflect a true sense of place: agronomic expertise, careful observation of the vineyard and respect for the land guide decisions in the vineyard and in the cellar. The winery combines traditional techniques with scientific research and practices aimed at environmental, social and economic sustainability.
