Brigaldara

Few producers in Valpolicella capture the true soul of Amarone quite like Brigaldara. Perched just outside San Floriano, this family-run estate has quietly become one of the region’s benchmarks, crafting wines that balance precision and purity with real depth and soul.

“Ultimately, it’s hard to go wrong with any of the wines in this portfolio.”
Eric Guido, Vinous

Under Antonio Cesari’s steady hand, Brigaldara has moved away from the heavy-handed styles of old, favouring Amarones that are bright, poised, and beautifully textured. Expect vivid black cherry, balsamic spice, and that signature touch of cocoa and bitter herbs that makes great Amarone so irresistible.

A pioneer in refining the aging process, Brigaldara uses a thoughtful mix of small barrels for oxygenation and colour, followed by large Slavonian oak casks to round and harmonise the wine. The result? Amarones that are powerful yet graceful: modern classics with an old-world heartbeat.
