TASTING NOTES

Grappa di Amarone della Valpolicella Campo dei Gigli is a distillate produced by Tenuta Sant'Antonio. Tenuta Sant'Antonio was founded in 1989 when the four Castagnedi brothers, Armando, Massimo, Tiziano and Paolo, moved by a passion for viticulture and driven by an entrepreneurial vein, decided to acquire an additional 30 hectares of vineyards in the Mezzane area, to complement the 20 hectares formerly owned by their father in Colognola ai Colli. Today, they manage about 100 hectares located between the largest and most important designations in the Veneto region, namely between Valpolicella and the area of Soave. Classic varieties such as Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella as well as Garganega, Trebbiano di Soave and Chardonnay all feel right at home here. The vineyards stretch along the valleys of the Illasi and Mezzane hills, close to the Alps, 120 to 320 metres above sea level. The climate is softened by the breeze from Lake Garda, with compact calcium-rich soils. All these components are enhanced by an almost completely natural process in the vineyard, as well as in the cellar, so that each cultivated variety can express itself and the terroir it comes from. The Castagnedi brothers’ production philosophy is based both on their in-depth wine making expertise and a deep respect for the environment, paying close attention to every stage of the supply chain. This is how not only their wines are created but also the distillates, such as the Grappa di Amarone Campo dei Gigli. This grappa is produced with the pomace of the symbolic wine of Tenuta Sant'Antonio, through a discontinuous steam current system. Once distilled and only the best parts selected, it is aged in stainless steel containers for a period of about 3 or 6 months. The result is a grappa with a dry but pleasant character. On the palate, it is warm due to an alcoholic presence that integrates well into the overall structure, and a rich bouquet with a prevalence of fruity notes, typical of Amarone. Perfect at the end of a meal, like a Sunday lunch, it is also ideal when intended for a moment of meditation. Read more Read less
THE WINERY

A work made of studying the most modern techniques, wisely combined with the oldest traditions, to get the most out of the land and grapes. All this is always done with full respect for the timing of each vine, the unique characteristics of the soil and local knowledge, to obtain precious Veneto red wines all to be discovered.
