The beating heart of our tradition, Amarone “Campo di Villa” is our signature cru, sourced from the majestic vineyard nestled among the marl of the ancient Villa district. This ancient vineyard dominates the Negrar Valley, serving as a treasure trove of values ​​and affections that embody the excellence of our family history. Here, the historic Risorgimento ideals of founder Giovan Battista Quintarelli merge with the youthful, innovative passion of his great-grandson Francesco, embodying a contemporary spirit that harmoniously blends with the history and tradition of these centuries-old walls. “Campo di Villa” is a testament to the historic Valpolicella that transcends its boundaries.
