Winery
The house of Santi was founded in 1843 by Attilio Carlo Santi, who started his production with the classics Soave, Valpolicella, Recioto, Amarone and Bardolino obtained from the grapes he harvested in his own vineyards in the heart of the very best zones.
Over the years, Santi has gradually transformed.
It launched the GIV quality system that runs through the entire production process, from the vineyard to vinification techniques to the wine-making philosophy to bottling.
Santi has three vinification cellars at Tenuta Pule, San Pietro Incariano and Tenuta Preella, a maturation cellar and a bottling plant equipped with state-of-the-art technology at Pedemonte.
Today, Santi is a byword for very prestigious wines created by skilled and experienced oenologists who combine tradition with an eye to the future.

Amarone Proemio
Created for the first time in 1995, this flagship wine of the Santi estate is produced only in the very best years and in limited quantities. The vineyards that produce the grapes are located in the best classic zones. The fruit is harvested by hand from the end of September and the healthiest, loosest bunches are placed in cases in the fruit room under controlled levels of humidity to partially dry for more than four months.
