Product Notes

Corte Giara Amarone della Valpolicella DOC is a robust and aging wine brewed in the Veneto region of Italy. This deep red wine offers a complex flavor that develops over time as it ages. It has a bouquet of dark fruits with hints of leather and tobacco that create a pleasant aromatic experience for the drinkers. The wine is made from a blend of Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes that are left to dry for several months to concentrate their flavors. The result is a rich, full-bodied wine that pairs excellently with roasted meats, game, or strong cheeses. Corte Giara Amarone della Valpolicella DOC is perfect for sophisticated occasions and connoisseurs who appreciate a fine, long-lasting wine.

Tasting Notes

Intense and inviting ruby red. The characteristic hints of cherries and pepper are particularly enjoyable in this wine, followed by subtle nuances of officinal herbs. Dry and well-balanced. The traditional acidic note combines well with the softness of the fruit to form a satisfying contrast and produce a supple, feisty wine.

About the Winery

Corte Giara

Established in 1989 in Italy’s Veneto region, the Corte Giara wine label was formed due to the partnership between the Allegrini Family and a small group of wine growers selected from Veneto. This brand uses the indigenous Veronese grapes to make classy wines. The fertile soils found in Veneto are absolutely ideal for growing this native varietal.

This label was established with the main aim to produce everyday wines that were a blend of style, tradition, elegance and international winemaking techniques. The brand wanted to attract young wine lovers, as their wines were designed with a class and crispiness too woo them. 

The Corte Giara wine label enjoys huge respect in Veneto, because the Allegrini Family has a rich 400-year history in the Italian winemaking scene. The family's roots lie in Fumane di Valpolicella, as this was the place where the prestigious Azienda Agricola was established in 1854. Today, the family’s estates can be found in the Valpollicella Classico area. These cover an area of 247 acres.

The Corte Giara wine estate, Naiano, stretches across an area of 33 hectares, and is located right in the centre of Bardolino Classico. The estate is situated quite close to the morainal hills of Lake Garda, and is blessed with southern exposure. This makes it ideal for growing the native Veronese grape varietal. The eco-friendly viticultural practices followed at this estate are on par with some of the best estates in the world. Though the techniques are rooted in tradition, the team also mixes them with the newest trends to keep the quality consistently high.

Some of the popular wines of this estate are:

  • Amarone Della Valpolicella DOC – Made from 70% Corvina Veronese and 30% Rondinella
  • Bardolino – Made from 50% Corvina Veronese, Rondinella 35% and Molinara 15%
  • Chardonnay delle Veneze – Made from 100% Chardonnay
