Profile of Bertani
The Bertani wine company in Valpolicella was founded in the mid-1800s by Giovan Battista and Gaetano Bertani (brothers). They were one of the first wine estates in the area to bottle their wines as they concentrated on export early on.
Bertani is one of the leading Amarone producers (the “king” of Veneto wines), and their first vintage was made in 1958. The aristocratic estate wines grace the royals’ tables; Bertani was even endorsed by the Italian Royal House (Real Casa) in 1923. History aside, Bertani is an exciting and forward-thinking wine producer using modern technology and innovation to make great wines. They have various product lines, including classic Amarone (which won the 3 glass award from Gambero Rosso), the “Valpolicella Valpantena” range, which includes their best seller Secco Bertani Valpolicella, Soave wines (delicate whites), and wines of Lake Garda. With Cellar Tours, on an Amarone Wine Tour, you can visit this remarkable winery and taste its fabulous wines.
