THIS IS WINE
Above: Dante Alighieri lived in Verona for several years after his exile, and his son Pietro decided to remain in the area, and in 1353 acquired the Casal dei Ronchi estate in
Gargagnago, in the heart of Valpolicella Classica. Winemaking activities began in the 1500s - a tradition which still continues uninterrupted today. After twenty generations, the
house and lands belong to the Conti Serego Alighieri family, direct descendants of Italy's Supreme Poet. For more than six centuries, this noble family has been part of the cultural and
viticultural history of Valpolicella and of Verona. The historic Serego Alighieri estate. Photography courtesy Masi Agricola.

The Tenuta Serego Alighieri is located in the
heart of the Valpolicella Classico region.
Founded in 1353 by the son of Dante, Italy’s
national poet of Inferno fame, Pietro, who
settled in the rolling hills on the outskirts of
Verona following his father’s exile there for a
number of years. His descendants have been
working the land since. The oldest and
historically most important winery in the
Valpolicella region, now under the umbrage of
the Masi group.
This blend is Corvina, Rondinella, and the
Serego Alighieri clone of the Molinara grape,
aged in cherry-wood casks.
Serego Alighieri’s Vaio Armaron Amarone
della Valpolicella Classico 2016 is undergrowth,
woody flavours, some floral with tobacco and
cedar in the front, centre and finish. An entry
of ripe dark stone fruit plum and black cherry,
dark chocolate, anise, coriander, vanilla,
cinnamon with a chicory and coffee finale.
Strong rubiesque port-like textures and
flavours.
Not yet extremely complex but certainly one
of the more generous, feisty and full-bodied
Amarones with excellent pedigree and a long
aging trajectory ahead - especially with a
fantastic year like 2016.

Amarone Classico, Costasera Amarone Riserva, Cantina Privata Boscaini Mazzano Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, and Cantina Privata Boscaini
