Az. Agr. Ca' dei Ronchi Soc. Agricola Semplice

Established in Valpolicella, Verona, Ca' dei Ronchi has made the region's two most demanding wines the heart of its craft: Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG and Recioto della Valpolicella DOCG. The raw material is the same that identifies the province — Corvina Veronese, Corvinone, and Rondinella — but the outcomes diverge. Amarone requires at least 14% alcohol and twenty-four months of aging; Recioto, a sweet wine, comes in both passito and spumante versions, with a minimum of 12%. Two paths from the same appassimento process, one dry and austere, the other fruit-forward. Mastering both means navigating precise technical thresholds without losing the character of the place, those nineteen municipalities that define the denomination. The winery doesn't keep this dual expertise behind closed doors: it welcomes visitors and offers direct contact with its methods, from the drying racks (graticci) to the bottle. For those who want to understand how a single territory can yield both a meditation red and a dessert wine, a stop at Ca' dei Ronchi places these two denominations side by side.
