Giuseppe
Quintarelli
It is the Chateau d'Yquem of Italy, absent
the grandeur. It is IWM's fastest selling wine, yet has
no marketing. It is the coveted gem of the Boot, but does
not bear the prestigious name Sassicaia or Gaja. It is a
legendary winery, without an estate. Its bottles are identified
by hand scripted labels that provide a glimpse into the
heart and soul of the world’s truest artisanal winemaker.
It is Quintarelli!
Known as "the Master of the Veneto,"
Giuseppe Quintarelli makes some of the world’s most
sought-after wines. From aperitifs to digestifs, his limited
production Amarones, Reciotos, and Valpolicellas are the
benchmark for excellence (along with Dal Forno, Veneto's
other legendary producer). Their greatness stems from the
inherent quality of the terroir and natural talent of this
master, whose concept of vintage approval and strict grape
selection rival the great Chateau of Sauternes. Giuseppe
puts his wines on the market when he deems them ready, often
keeping them in the cellar for decades until the right moment
arrives.
