Bertani's Amarone is the reference for the traditional, extremely long-aged style: minimum eight years in large Slavonian oak produces a garrigue-herb and leather-inflected wine of remarkable freshness and longevity, lighter in colour than modern Amarone but strikingly complex.

Dry · Light-bodied · High acidity · Elegant · Savoury

Filanda (silk mill) is the top non-Cartizze label from Bortolomiol, employing a longer extended Charmat contact for added yeast-derived complexity. A brut style with more depth than the entry-level range.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Elegant · Bold

Brigaldara's Classico Amarone is known for its precise, traditional approach: careful appassimento in the estate's fruttai and mixed Slavonian/French oak ageing producing a structured, age-worthy expression.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Rustic · Easygoing

The cooperative's estate Amarone Classico provides accessible quality from 230 family growers across the Classico zone; a solid, tobacco-cherry traditional Amarone at significantly better value than single-estate bottlings at comparable quality.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Rustic · Bold

Domaso is the cooperative's flagship single-vineyard Amarone from the 14-hectare Maternigo hill parcel, showing appreciably greater concentration and mineral precision than the estate-level wine; the earthy, tobacco-cedar style reflects the Maternigo terroir's calcareous character.

Dry · Light-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Easygoing · Rustic

Campagnola's Valpolicella Classico from the estate's hillside vineyards in the historic Classico zone. A traditional expression of the DOC: light in colour and body but with the characteristic Corvina sour cherry and almond character of the Classico hills.

Dry · Light-bodied · High acidity · Elegant · Savoury

Case Paolin's vintage-dated Millesimato (single-year harvest) Brut expresses the character of a single season from the Montello-Asolo hills. Only released in years when harvest quality justifies the vintage designation.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Contemplative · Funky

Made by Demeter-certified biodynamic winemaker Marinella Camerani, Mithas is among the most distinctive Amarone: Demeter-certified estate viticulture produces a wine of unusual earthy complexity, mineral precision and high acidity that evolves beautifully with bottle age.

Dry · Light-bodied · High acidity · Elegant · Savoury

Gran Cuvee uses extended Charmat contact to develop yeast-derived bread and cream complexity in the Prosecco Superiore framework. A premium brut with more depth than the house standard Brut.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Contemplative · Elegant

The definitive benchmark Amarone: monumental concentration from multi-variety appassimento, extraordinary aromatic depth of dried fruit, leather and tobacco, with firm but resolved tannins and a finish of exceptional length.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Rustic · Bold

The Nicolis family's Amarone from the Villa Girardi estate in San Pietro in Cariano reflects a traditional, large-cask aged style with tobacco-leather character and solid structure; consistent quality across multiple vintages.

Dry · Medium-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Elegant · Contemplative

Otto is Pra's barrel-aged prestige Soave, named for the year the oldest vines were planted (1908); extensive lees contact in barriques produces a Garganega of remarkable richness, hazelnut-cream complexity and long ageing potential.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Contemplative · Elegant

Capitel Monte Olmi is Tedeschi's single-vineyard prestige Amarone, from the Monte Olmi hill above San Pietro in Cariano, with exceptional concentration and finesse, reflecting one of the oldest family estates in Valpolicella.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Rustic · Bold

Tommasi's estate Amarone Classico represents the fourth-generation family's traditional approach: a high proportion of Corvinone adds floral lift to the dried-cherry concentration while three years in large casks develops structure.

Dry · Medium-bodied · Medium tannin · High acidity · Rustic · Easygoing

Tommasi's Ripasso offers the hallmark refermentation complexity over dried Amarone skins in a well-structured, cherry-tobacco dominated medium red that is one of the zone's best-value offerings in the Ripasso DOC.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Contemplative · Elegant

Gemola is the flagship red of Vignalta and one of the Veneto's most distinctive non-Valpolicella reds. The volcanic basalt soils of the Euganean Hills give a distinctive mineral thread to this Merlot-Cabernet Franc blend that is unlike the softer alluvial reds of the plain.

Dry · Medium-bodied · Medium tannin · High acidity · Rustic · Refreshing

Viviani's Classico Superiore from the high Mazzano ridge shows the altitude freshness that characterises all the estate's wines: iron mineral, tart cherry and mountain herbs in a lean, food-loving medium-red.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Bold · Elegant

Zyme's Kairos is a modern interpretation of Classico Amarone; former Quintarelli cellarmaster Celestino Gaspari applies small French oak ageing to produce a polished, concentrated expression that bridges traditional intensity with contemporary oak integration.
