The Valpolicella Classico area, which lies within the territory of only five townships - Fumane, Sant'Ambrogio, San Pietro in Cariano, Marano and Negrar - is among the most important wine producing areas in Italy.
Situated in the Veneto Region, north west of the City of Verona, this area has been tied closely to winegrowing and wine since ancient times, as is confirmed by the etymology of its name: "val polis cellae", in fact, means "the valley of many wine cellars".
The Valpolicella is also a privileged land because of its natural scenery, historical monuments, cultural contexts and its original gastronomic traditions, which permit visitors to have experience a strong emotional impact.
