The Zenato story began in 1960 with the determined and innovative Sergio Zenato. He pioneered new winemaking techniques and resolutely chose native vines to produce top-quality wines. Nestled in the hills surrounding Lake Garda, the vineyards enjoy dry soils and cool temperatures—ideal conditions for grape cultivation. The grapes are hand-picked with the utmost care and rigorously selected. Now in the hands of his children, the Zenato legacy endures, with every glass of Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella demonstrating their enduring passion and excellence. By consistently delivering top quality, Zenato wines have received numerous awards, including the prestigious Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella.
Each bottle of Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella is cherished for thirty months of aging in oak barrels, followed by another twelve months of bottle ageing in Zenato's cellars.

A wine of this caliber, like the Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella, deserves a culinary counterpart that complements it.
