Tedeschi is a family-owned and run winery producing renowned classic Veronese wines, including Valpolicella, Amarone, Ripasso and Soave.

The Tedeschi family has been making wine in the Italian Valpolicella Classico wine region since the Seventeenth Century. They produce four types of Amarone and five Valpolicellas

The Tedeschi estate is comprised of four main vineyards : Fabriseria, Monte Olmi, Tenuta Maternigo and Lucchine.

Over a three course matched dinner we tasted 6 of their wines.

This was a great chance to try Amarone della Valpolicella. This is an intensely flavoured red wine made from grapes which have been dried on racks to intensify flavour. It is made in the Veneto region of north-eastern Italy, and is one of Italy’s most prestigious red wines.

We held a small auction of a few select wines from our wine cellars and extremely generous wines fro Tedeschi and raised nearly £2,000 for charities supporting Ukraine.
