Giuseppe Quintarelli is one of the leading figures in traditional Veneto viticulture and a key figure in the history of Amarone. His winery, located in Negrar, in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica, achieved international recognition thanks to meticulous winemaking, limited production, and extended aging periods. Amarone is produced by partially drying the grapes after harvest—a process known as appassimento—which enhances the concentration of sugars and aromatic compounds. Quintarelli’s traditional winemaking, based primarily on native grape varieties such as Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella, is distinguished by its structure and aging potential. The 1991 vintage stands as a testament to the winery’s historic production and is of particular interest to collectors of great Italian wines.
