Giuseppe Quintarelli

North of Verona, narrow roads wind through the countryside to the small, well-hidden estate in the village of Negrar. A few hectares of vines thrive here in the best sites of the Valpolicella area, on limestone and basalt soils.

The estate is run by the Quintarelli family and is devoted to tradition and craftsmanship passed down through generations. Giuseppe Quintarelli, who learned the art of winemaking from his father, was a visionary and pioneer in the region and is considered one of the great masters of Italian viticulture.

At Quintarelli, every wine is vinified traditionally and given the time it needs to meet the family’s high standards.

Over the past 60 years, founder Giuseppe Quintarelli shaped one of the most legendary estates in the Veneto.
