Winemaking & technical data

Cultivation

Located in the town of Fumane, on a hill at an altitude of 280-350m, the Monte Sant'Urbano vineyard enjoys a sunny environment. The volcanic limestone and clay soil retains moisture well and prevents excessive drying.

- Arrangement: Verona-style pergola, set on a shelf supported by dry stone walls called Maroni

brewing

The best bunches are hand-selected and dried in a drying room for 110 days under ideal conditions of temperature, humidity and ventilation, resulting in a 45% loss of initial weight and a significant increase in sugar content.

After crushing, the wine is macerated in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 16-18°C for 28 days, with regular pumping and delestage. The skins are then separated and the wine undergoes alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in 50hL oak barrels. The wine is then aged for 24 months in 500L Allier barrels and for 18 months in 20-40hL oak barrels. The wine is then aged in bottle.

・Residual sugar level: 3.7 g/L ・Total acidity: 5.2 g/L

About the producer

Speri

[An unparalleled, beautifully crafted Amarone]

Speri is recognised worldwide as a representative of the traditional style of Valpolicella wines. Family-run for seven generations, its history dates back to the mid-19th century.

The wines have maintained their unique character since the company's founding, and the wines reflect the identity and elegance of the region. They have made a significant contribution to the wine tradition of Valpolicella, becoming a global benchmark.
She is also a member of the "Famiglie Storiche".

Even today, the Speri family continues to use only grapes grown on their own vineyards and to make wine with meticulous attention to tradition and the environment.

In 2015, we obtained organic certification (certifying that our products are additive-free and made from 100% organic ingredients, without the use of any pesticides or chemical fertilizers).

The wine is made exclusively from grapes indigenous to the Valpolicella region, using the three traditional varieties Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara, as well as lesser known ancient varieties such as Oselleta, Rossanella, Perara and Cabrosina.
