To paint, it is essential to known f lavour s understand the primary colours. Natural and direct fruit of our grapes.

“The Valpolicella reflects the authentic expression of the land from which it comes from. I like thinking about the spontaneity of a product which shows itself differently every year. This year reminds you of crunchy cherries, aromatic herbs and white pepper. The perfect combination should be… a mature Monte Veronese or beef tartar.”
