Tedeschi Archive
The long life of Amarone and Tedeschi wines.
The Archive is the place where the winery’s history, memories, and philosophy are preserved. It is akin to a rich library of labels produced across the years that tell the story of the enological evolution of Valpolicella and the longevity of Amarone.
The archive hall is a true treasure chest for collectors across the world, a new instrument of knowledge for specialists in the sector, and an opportunity for the food and wine sector to enhance their wine menus.
Within the Archive, one can discover countless facets of the “Tedeschi Style” and witness the effect of time on the Amarone as unexplored dimensions are revealed.
“It is the sum of the work of our family and pays homage to the value of our territory – explains Riccardo Tedeschi. The scope of this work is not merely celebratory but also the culmination of the will to create a place that provides a different point of view of our Amarone, an eclectic wine, which fresh or aged, lends itself to diverse gastronomic pairings. As our father, Lorenzo, has always taught us, to make an Amarone that will age well over time, you first need to produce a great wine.”
The hall holds approximately 6,800 bottles of a total of approximately 27,000 bottles of older vintage wines. In addition to tastings, vintage wines from the 2000s are available for sale. Earlier vintages, which are scarcer in quantity, are destined for exclusive vertical tastings such as the one that was held to inaugurate the archive.
In the twilight of the Archive, rows of bottles rest on fine metal structures that rise up in line with a massive wooden table that takes up the entirety of the hall. The bottles are arranged by vintage and label of the different cru.
The “library,” exclusively conceived and realized by a Veronese artisan, is expertly lit by horizontal illumination to create an enchanting atmosphere. The large fireplace was retrofitted to hold large format bottles.
