Our history
Created with passion, honouring Valpolicella wine tradition
The Mazzi family has a long tradition in wine making. Since 1900, they have been growing vines and producing high-quality wines. In 1958, Roberto Mazzi, after his agricultural studies, breathed new life into wine production. Today, the farming company is run with passion by Roberto’s sons, Stefano and Antonio, who carry on the family legacy with commitment and dedication.
Amarone della Valpolicella production process
Harvest
The ripe grapes are selected and hand-picked, then placed in boxes between September and October, when the time is right for harvesting.
Destemming and crushing
In January, grapes are destemmed to remove stems and leaves, and then crushed to extract the must.
Fermentation
Once the must is placed in vats, it starts fermenting thanks to its natural yeasts, which transform the grape sugars into alcohol.
Pumping and fulling
During fermentation, the must is pumped over the cap to extract the characteristics of the grapes. On the other hand, fulling is carried out to extract colour and tannins.
Ageing
After fermentation, the wine ages in oak barrels and gains complexity and unique characteristics.
Refinement
The wine refines in bottles for a specific period of time, developing unique characteristics and reaching the highest quality expression.
