Azienda Agricola SALGARI F.LLI

The SALGARI wine cellar is located in the historic heart of the Valpolicella valley. This area is the most suitable for the production of "Valpolicella Classico" red wines. The Valpolicella wines are: Valpolicella Classico, Ripasso, Amarone and Recioto. Our cellar started cultivating vineyards over 170 years ago. Located in a small town named Negrar (near the city of Verona, north-east Italy), our cellar also has a small shop where you can taste and buy our products, along with locally produced red wines and "Colline di Moròn" Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Salgari wine cellar is in an ancient rural courtyard, located between Negrar and S.Vito, and is run by Giovanni, Luigi and Roberto Salgari. The company has 20 hectares of vineyards in the Valpolicella Classico zone, where it has been growing grapes and making wine using ancient methods for more than 170 years.
