Bertani possesses an unparalleled collection of historic vintages of Amarone della Valpolicella Classico spanning six decades, from 1958 to 2013.
The Library is a testament to this remarkable heritage and how it stands out for its clear and unique style, the Bertani style.

BERTANI STYLE

This unmistakable identity is treated by combining it with the elemental character of each vintage: exuberance, gentleness, harmony and finesse are the traits of Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Bertani.

A CONTEMPORARY ICON

“There are two ways of being an Amarone. One is to be an exceptional wine with impressive concentration, power, alcohol, extracts and longevity. The other is to be a great red with more human qualities, a more moderate degree of alcohol – fresher and easier to drink.

The extraordinary nature of the first type has brought Amarone to the center stage of the international scene, but it has one shortcoming. We never know when to drink a wine like this. The second type has less personality and can be confused with other great reds.

I believe that Amarone Bertani has struck a balance between these two versions. It’s a wine that’s larger than life. But not excessively so.”
