Pieropan

Soave, Veneto

On my Top 100 list

Pieropan, Soave

Pieropan is a family winery in the town of Soave, in the Veneto. The winery gives 1880 as its founding date. It also says four generations of the Pieropan family have contributed to the business since 1890.

The range centers on Soave Classico and a set of named wines: Calvarino, La Rocca, Le Colombare and Calvarino 5. There are also Ghes and Ruberpan on the list.

The family also makes Amarone. Villa Cipolla, a 16th-century Venetian villa in Tregnago, near Verona, has been restored as a wine relais. It was founded as a place dedicated to producing their Amarone della Valpolicella, and the Amarone Vigna Garzon Riserva is on the list too.
