About the Winery
When Marco Benedetti founded the DolceVera Winery in 2013, he honored the legacy of his ancestors, combining his grandfather’s vineyard with those of his mother's uncle. The name DolceVera is a tribute to his father, "Dolce," and a nun named Vera, who played a significant role in the family's life.

The vineyards are planted with traditional varieties such as Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella, using a mix of old and new vines, some of which are over 40 years old.

A 'superior' tasting
Time flew by, from the story of the places, to the one about the winemaking process, to the personal choices, everything was truly interesting.
The owner knows how to put you at ease right away, he conveys the passion for his work and for the territory, and the resulting wine is proof of it!
And the fireplace is the icing on the cake.
We will definitely be back

Excellent experience
It was very much appreciated by the whole family, even by those who don't know much about wine.
Great value for money, we recommend it.
It feels like home
Part of the location was under construction for the expansion so desired by his grandfather and never started. With a breathtaking terrace and the new part of the cellar that connects the old part with the new.
Excellent explanation of the wines, accompanied by local delicacies and a structured tasting flight.
Congratulations to Marco for what he is building, starting from his grandfather's dreams!

Excellent tasting
We couldn't visit the outdoor part of the winery due to adverse weather conditions, but he was very willing to answer all our questions, even the silliest ones, and he did so with great professionalism.
You can see there is love in what he does and this also shines through in his wines, which are truly exceptional.
It is a tasting of 5 wines (Valpolicella Classico, Ripasso, Superiore, Amarone and Recioto), all accompanied by local cheese and cured meat.
Everything was delicious! We stocked up!
