We dropped into Fergettina unannounced just expecting a basic tasting experience.
Anna from Fergettina was extremely accommodating and gave us an in depth tour and explanation of the property and philosophy of the wines.
Interesting fact is Fergettina uses square bottles. Through plenty of trials and tastings they believe a square bottle keeps more of the lees in contact with the wine and leads to better yeast autolysis integration.
Thank Anna and Fergettina for being very accomodative

Big than you from Luca Ardiri, Giovanni Allegrini and Silvia Allegrini.
Showing and myself a different approach to producing wine in Valpolicella. Instead of just using pergolas in the vineyard they also use guyot.
Also got to visit two amazing sites- La Poja and Grola. These wines were spectacular.
And yes finished with the flagship Amarone!
Great morning
