From the land to the vineyard
We are a young but highly experienced winery. It may seem like a paradox, and it is not. Our experience is called Sebastiano Righetti. It is he who twenty years ago conceived, wanted, and built Cantina Crosarola after having worked for years in the world of wine and having matured not only competence and preparation but above all a clear vision on how his Valpolicella should have been: natural, typical and of quality. Our story begins at the beginning of the twentieth century at the time of Sebastiano’s great-grandparents, owners and farmers of large plots of land in Casterna, a historic village in the heart of Valpolicella Classica. Time passes, generations follow one another, until in 2000 Sebastiano, an agricultural expert, finding himself heir to a part of those ancient funds, decides to perpetuate the family’s agricultural and winemaking tradition but to do it in a new way. He thus put to good use what he had learned working in the small and large wineries of the area, founded Cantina Crosarola and began to produce his wine from grapes from native vines matured in the hills on vines that have been almost totally innovated in the last two decades, kissed by the sun and cared for with authentic passion and in line with local traditions.
At the Crosarola winery, we only harvest by hand: the terraces and the typical pergola. The selection, which takes place under Sebastiano’s expert eye, is done directly on the pitch and the best matches become the raw material for the top of our range: Amarone and Amarone Riserva. And it is always Sebastiano who decides the taste that our wine must have: he does so by relying on professional oenologists for the technical aspects, but always reserving the task of giving a personal connotation, an autograph signature to all the products that must, first of all, reflect the typicality and therefore the territory.
