The late Maestro del Veneto, Giuseppe Quintarelli, built a legendary estate over a remarkable sixty-year career, with a lasting legacy now overseen by his daughter Fiorenza, son-in-law Giampaolo, and grandsons Francesco and Lorenzo. Quintarelli’s name symbolizes tradition, passion, and meticulous craftsmanship, creating wines that are much more than just beverages—they are artisanal masterpieces. Giuseppe, known as “Bepi,” was a perfectionist, ensuring every detail from handwritten labels to the finest corks. The Quintarelli wines are known for their patience, aged slowly in large casks in the quiet Valpolicella cellars until ready for release. The estate produces a range of exceptional wines, including the seductive Bianco Secco, the groundbreaking Valpolicella, the benchmark Amarone, and the rare Bandito, each a testament to time, tradition, and passion. A bottle of Quintarelli never fails to impress, offering wines that stand in a class of their own.

TASTING NOTES
Captivating and darkly beautiful wine. It opens with a dusty bouquet of dried flowers, rich cherry sauce, spiced oranges, and subtle hints of violet pastille. On the palate, it is a perfect balance of purity, with crisp wild berries lifted by refreshing acidity and a touch of dark chocolate. Mineral notes gradually emerge on the finish that lingers impressively long, maintaining its freshness. Grippy tannins persist, accompanied by lingering flavors of dried blueberries and lavender.
