Discover Brigaldara

Est. delivery mid-November, 2026

We recently hosted Lamberto Cesari of Brigaldara at Tozi, and it was one of those tastings that makes you rethink Amarone. Forget the big, sweet, boozy blockbusters: these are elegant, lifted and beautifully perfumed wines, showing a fresher side to Valpolicella’s most famous red.

As Eric Guido of Vinous puts it, “Ultimately, it’s hard to go wrong with any of the wines in this portfolio”. So we’ve put together a mixed six, with one bottle of each wine, working up from Valpolicella to the impressive Case Vecie Amarone. All landed and duty paid, ready to enjoy over Christmas.

In the Case

Brigaldara, Valpolicella, 2025
“Delicious”
93/100, James Suckling

“On the palate, it’s exceptionally juicy and lively, with great drinkability, juicy acidity, and a salty finish.”
93/100, Falstaff
 
Brigaldara, Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso, 2024
“On the palate, it offers plenty of fruit sweetness, delicate tannins, medium body, and good balance.”
93/100, Falstaff
 
Brigaldara, Case Vecie, Valpolicella Superiore, 2022
“Very fruity on the palate with pleasant freshness and fine tannins, very juicy on the finish.”
94/100, Falstaff
 
Brigaldara, Picol de Legno, Garganega, 2022
“Soothingly round in feel, this washes across the palate with a mineral-tinged blend of green apples and hints of lime.”
90/100, Eric Guido, Vinous
 
Brigaldara, Cavolo, Amarone della Valpolicella, 2020
“The Cavolo is already stunning and an excellent example of the more savory style of Amarone.”
94/100, Eric Guido, Vinous
 
Brigaldara, Case Vecie, Amarone della Valpolicella, 2018
“The 2018 Amarone della Valpolicella Case Vecie is darkly alluring and brooding in the glass, with a dusting of confectionary spice and dried violets complementing wild blueberries and a lifting whiff of fresh mint.”
96/100, Eric Guido, Vinous
