Quintarelli

Silvio Quintarelli, who with his brothers cultivated vineyards in Marano di Valpolicella on a sharecropping basis, founded the winery at the beginning of the twentieth century. Even then the wine was exported to the United States in barrels via the owner of the land. In 1924, they moved the winery to Cerè, Negrar, where the business was carried on by Silvio with his wife and children. Giuseppe, the youngest of the sons, took the helm in the 1950s, maintaining traditional methods while renovating the vineyards and expanding the winery, bringing the winery to global success. After Giuseppe’s death the winery is in the hands of his daughter Fiorenza.
