Giuseppe Quintarelli is one of the most revered names in Italian wine. The family estate dates back to the early 1900s, when Silvio Quintarelli settled at Cerè di Negrar in the Valpolicella Classico zone, and it was his son Giuseppe who turned it into a legend through meticulous fruit selection and very long ageing in old Slavonian oak casks. Today his grandson Francesco Grigoli leads the estate, with the cellar and home vineyards set on the hill of Monte Ca' Paletta.
Primofiore, meaning "first flower", is the youngest and most approachable red in the Quintarelli range. Labelled as Veneto IGT, it blends the local Corvina and Corvinone with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, roughly in equal halves. Part of the fruit is dried for a short time before fermentation, a nod to the estate's Amarone tradition, and fermentation proceeds with native yeasts.
Where Quintarelli's other reds can spend many years in wood, Primofiore is aged for around a year in large Slavonian oak casks and released young. It offers an early glimpse of the house style, combining Valpolicella's bright cherry fruit with the structure of Cabernet.
