Rubinelli Vajol Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG

Vajol is a is a sunny, warm, welcoming valley in the heart of the Valpolicella classica.
The cradle shape, the micro-climate that envelopes it, the ancient stones that generate and support it are the aspects that qualify the uniqueness of its vineyards, its grapes and its wine.

The best bunches of this beautiful Amarone are selected manually and placed in the trays, then placed in the loft for four months, during which the natural drying process takes place.
