Veneto

Since 1962 the heart of the company has been in Dolcè, amidst vineyards extending along a strip of land that connects the regions of Veneto and Trentino. Dolcè is our headquarters leading a project based on a balance between tradition and innovation, from where every single bottle of wine derives its scientific planning. Furthermore, it is in Dolcè where Albino Armani carries out his courageous “Alta Valpolicella Classica” project, producing wines from the hills, characterized by vibrant freshness and vigor.

THE TERRITORIES

Valdadige

There are 8 ancient fortifications that dominate the land from above. The valley lies in a tight gorge between the rocky bastions of Monte Baldo and the Lessinia Mountains. And the limestone rocks reverberate upon the vineyards’ light, crystalline by the strong prevailing winds. A precious reflection! And the daylight hours are extended, favoring the ripening of the grapes, while glacial moraines baptize gravely, draining soil, which is ancient and precious.

THE TERRITORIES

Valpolicella

On the highest hills of Valpolicella Classica, in Marano, the vineyards occupy the highest belt of arable land before the extreme limit of the mountain. An environmental context that is the premise for growing several autochthonous and distinct grape varieties, in perfect exposure to the sun. For human beings the only thing left to do is to respect the slow and demanding rites of growing grapes and making wine, following the teachings of tradition. The drying of the grapes takes place naturally in the fruit drying area adjacent to the wine cellar.
