History

Speri is a historic, entirely family-owned Valpolicella Classica estate, growing wine since the first half of the 19th century and now in its seventh generation. A pioneer of cru bottlings, it is best known for the Amarone Vigneto Monte Sant'Urbano, a single-vineyard wine from air-dried Corvina and Corvinone that is a benchmark of the classic style, alongside its Ripasso and Recioto.
