SalvaTerra

Verona-based Amarone producer working with Valpolicella's classic dried-grape tradition.

SalvaTerra operates in Verona, at the heart of Veneto's Amarone country. The winery focuses on the region's signature dried-grape wine, Amarone della Valpolicella, built from the traditional blend of Corvina, Rondinella, and Corvinone. The flagship Campocroce Amarone della Valpolicella and the reserve-tier Cave di Prun Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva have both attracted assessment from Decanter, Wine Enthusiast, and Falstaff. Amarone demands patience—grapes are dried for months before fermentation, concentrating tannins and alcohol into wines of dark fruit, dried cherry, and spice. SalvaTerra's range reflects the discipline required to work within this demanding style, from the Classico bottling upward. The wines sit squarely in Valpolicella's tradition of structured, age-worthy reds.
