INTERVIEW WITH A WINEMAKER - Cristoforo Aldrighetti - Aldrighetti
If you have a little knowledge of wine I guess you're quite familiar with the names Valpolicella or Amarone.
Aldrighetti winery is run by two old brothers in the Valpolicella area close to Verona, amazingly small production using a traditional method but using environmentally friendly products, their wine can be considered Vegan even if not certified.
Amongst Valpolicella, Ripasso, and Amarone they make the famous Recioto in just 500 bottles a year, a must-try red dessert wine.
