More questions
Valpolicella Amarone Classico Riserva - Clementi is born in the heart of the traditional production area of Valpolicella Classica, a land suited for the native grape varieties Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara. This Amarone is the result of careful vinification with grape drying, a technique that concentrates aromas and sugars, giving the wine an intense and complex structure.
The aging, which in this case is patiently extended over several years, enhances the warm notes of dried fruit, ripe cherries, and sweet spices, accompanied by hints of tobacco and dark chocolate. The palate is enveloping, full, and soft, with well-integrated tannins and a long final persistence. An elegant drinkability makes this Amarone Riserva perfect for pairing with red meats, roasts, and aged cheeses, enhancing flavors with its generous and refined intensity.

The story
The business began with Pietro Clementi’s interest in viticulture. A lawyer from Verona, he purchased the property in Gnirega in 1969 and began making wine in a small home cellar. For years production was intended for family, friends and local events. In 2002 the winery was renovated to serve the national and international markets. Today management has passed to the second generation.
Production philosophy
Family-run production focused on respecting the land and Valpolicella’s traditional practices. The family is a member of the Federazione Italiana Vignaioli Indipendenti and of the Sistema di Qualità Nazionale per la Produzione Integrata, prioritizing on-site processing, hand harvesting and agronomic practices with reduced environmental impact.
