Cantina di Negrar Soave Classico DOC

Vinum Lector Staff — Fri, 04 Apr 2025 07:24:19 +0000

The Cantina di Negrar brand is the soul of Cantina Valpolicella Negrar and pays homage to the philosophy of cooperative production while also recalling the territory’s historical vestiges: the effigy of St. Mark’s Lion standing tall on a column in the centre of Negrar is testimony of the Venetian Republic’s domination in the sixteenth century. The Cantina di Negrar wines are rooted in the wine-making tradition of Valpolicella and the Veronese wine-growing areas, with a modern reinterpretation to guarantee the best price/quality ratio. The name of this famous wine is said to derive from Svevi or Suavi, one of the peoples who attempted the conquest of Italy in the Medieval era. According to some people, the name Soave is thought to have been given to the town by the divine poet Dante due to the deliciousness of its wine. For more info, visit Cantina di Negrar website.
