Az. Vitivinicola Righetti S.r.l.

Az. Vitivinicola Righetti is based in Pescantina, within the Valpolicella denomination, which spans 19 municipalities. Its work focuses on two parallel DOCG designations. The first is Amarone della Valpolicella, where Corvina Veronese, Corvinone, and Rondinella undergo traditional *appassimento* (grape drying) followed by a minimum of 24 months of aging, which builds structure and complexity. The second is Recioto della Valpolicella, offered in both still *passito* and sparkling versions, showcasing the two faces—still and fizzy—of the same sweet principle. The two denominations share grapes and method but diverge in outcome: dry power on one side, concentrated sweetness on the other. Rooted in the Veronese terroir, the estate distills the local ampelographic repertoire into wines of controlled alcohol content and measured power, where *appassimento* remains the common technical key. Righetti's profile lies in this essential pair: not an extensive range, but two cornerstone expressions of Valpolicella, Amarone and Recioto, managed with the discipline their DOCG status imposes and with the consistency of a coherent territorial interpretation.
