Roberto Mazzi winery

Roberto Mazzi Winery is a historic winery of Negrar, in the heart of Valpolicella, producing wines of great quality since 1958. Today at the helm of the winery we have Antonio and Stefano, very attentive to the care of the vineyard, which consists of 8 hectares because if it is true that wine is made in the vineyard, this is even more true for Amarone and Recioto della Valpolicella. Two wines that you will find only here, sons of terroir and unique conditions in the world.

Philosophy of Roberto Mazzi Winery

Making wine is an ancient matter: you need patience, skill and a deep bond with the land. You must learn to interpret the vintages and balance them with the drying process, choose the most appropriate aging to shape the mighty substance of these great wines without weighing it down with woody aromas because the wines can evolve, become ethereal and full of flavors.

Style of Roberto Mazzi’s wines

The interior of the cellar will leave you stunned In the vineyard we have a careful selection of the best grapes, which are harvested by hand and placed on the famous arele for a few months, coming to lose 40% of the weight. The happy combination of factors such as passion, the care put into the work and some of the finest cru of all Valpolicella, results in an outstanding production.

The wine style is classic, elegant, played on austerity and balance that comes from a ground-based on silt, clay and limestone. Drunk now are great, but the aging potential is fabulous, at least 10-15 years, above all for the Amarone.
