Producer Information

Zenato is an important producer in the Veneto region of northeast Italy, with estates in the Lugana and Valpolicella regions. It is particularly known for its Amarone della Valpolicella wines, although it makes a range of other wines, from Pinot Grigio and Soave to varietal Corvina wines.The Amarone Classico wines are made at the Costalunga estate at Sant’Ambrogio di Valpolicella. The generic cuve uses grapes that are dried for three to four months before fermentation and 36 months in oak barrels.The flagship Riserva Sergio Zenato is made from grapes that are dried in a single layer on trays, then aged in 7500-litre Slavonian casks for 48 months. Both are predominantly Corvina, with smaller portions of Rondinella and Oseleta.
