Description

Zenato

Zenato Winery is a renowned and esteemed winery located in the Veneto region of Italy. With a rich history, a commitment to quality, and a diverse portfolio of wines, Zenato has established itself as a leading producer of Italian wines. The story of Zenato Winery began in the early 1960s when Sergio Zenato, along with his wife Carla, started their winemaking journey. They initially focused on producing wines from the native grape varieties of the region, such as Corvina, Rondinella, and Oseleta. Over time, their dedication to crafting exceptional wines garnered recognition and appreciation from wine enthusiasts around the world.

One of the notable contributions of Zenato to the wine world is their expertise in the production of Amarone della Valpolicella. This iconic Italian wine is made using a unique winemaking technique called appassimento, where the grapes are dried before fermentation, resulting in concentrated flavors and rich, full-bodied wines. Zenato Amarone has gained international acclaim for its depth, complexity, and the perfect balance between fruit, structure, and elegance.

Apart from Amarone, Zenato produces a wide range of other red and white wines. Their Valpolicella wines, including Valpolicella Classico and Valpolicella Ripasso, showcase the distinct characteristics of the region with their vibrant fruit flavors, lively acidity, and velvety textures. The Lugana DOC wines, crafted from the Trebbiano di Lugana grape, are known for their crispness, citrusy notes, and remarkable freshness.

Zenato Winery combines traditional winemaking methods with modern techniques to ensure the highest quality in their wines. The family’s meticulous vineyard management, hand-harvesting of grapes, and careful selection of the best clusters contribute to the exceptional expression of the terroir in their wines. Furthermore, their state-of-the-art winemaking facilities and aging processes result in wines that capture the essence of their origin.
