The Bertani winery was founded in 1857 founded by Giovan Battista and Gaetano Bertani. Both have set a milestone for the entire Valpolicella area. The "Secco Bertani" made the wine house known throughout Europe and received numerous awards.

All Bertani red wines consist of 80% Corvina and 20% Rondinella. The grapes for the Amarone Valpantena are picked by hand and dried until mid-January. After a gentle fermentation, the wine matures for 30 months mainly in large 25hl wooden barrels made of Slavonian oak, a smaller part is in oak barrels. After bottling, the wine matures in the bottle for another 6 months before it goes on sale.

The Bertani-Amarone di Valpolicella Valpantena DOCG Cherry and strawberry aromas exude on the nose, which leaves a subtle sweetness. The Amarone is particularly popular due to the Tobacco, dried herbs and spices that develop it. For the full-bodied Amarone di Valpolicella Valpanten DOCG, the Valpantena region of origin is perfect and so the Amarone develops a fantastic and unforgettable character. Fine tannins with dense spiciness leave a velvety and long-lasting delicacy in the finish.
