Two stone crosses stand in the vineyard of Le Pontare, probably of Celtic origin, signposts for pilgrims on the path to a nearby sanctuary. According to legend, Dante Alighieri also passed by here on his wanderings through the Veneto, perhaps in search of that vin pretto – the pure wine – which he praised so highly in his Convivio. If you stand between these crosses today, at 450 metres above sea level, you can look down over the entire Valpolicella Classica valley, Verona and the shimmering waters of Lake Garda.
La Fabriseria is only created in years when nature is generous. It was in 2016. The seven-hectare vineyard, which the family acquired in 2000, has 7,200 vines per hectare on pinkish-white chalky marl from the Cretaceous period – rich in calcium carbonate and iron oxide, interspersed with grey-yellow clay slate. A terroir that produces wines of rare complexity. Corvina and Corvinone (40% each), supplemented by 15% Rondinella and 5% Oseleta, were dried after the harvest and matured for four years in large Slavonian oak barrels.
What flows into the glass is condensed time. Deep, dark ruby red with garnet reflections. The nose: smouldering, mysterious. Dried black cherries meld with clove and mocha, infused with mint and camphor. Behind this, smoke, tobacco, a hint of sealing wax. Seamless silk unfolds on the palate: opulent red and blue fruits, contrasted by balsamic bitterness and dark chocolate. The tannins are fine-grained and multi-layered, the finish seems endless: herbs, roasted flavours, a lingering freshness and an almost endless life ... SUPERIORE.DE
"Deep dark, compact ruby violet colour. Smells of crème de cassis, dark chocolates, precious wood, light coconut flakes, mint and liquorice on the nose. Powerful, very present entry on the palate, enormous and compact, with racy acidity, noble fruit core and many layers, long and full of character." Falstaff
"This wine needs time to truly express itself. Aromas of black-plum compote, fresh and candied violets, dried herbs, anise and fresh tobacco all swirl in the glass. Polished and rich, the palate gives fresh and baked black cherries mixed with clove, vanilla and pepper giving way to espresso and pu-erh tea. The wine is firm and built to last, finishing with refined tannins and an acidity that will help keep the wine together for years to come." Wine Enthusiast
"The top-shelf wine from Tedeschi is the 2016 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva La Fabriseria. This is a superrich and concentrated red with an impenetrable appearance. It's Amarone, baby, so brace yourself for a very high 17% alcohol content, big flavor intensity and phenolic power that comes with a wine made with air-dried fruit. By the time the dried grapes are pressed, they've lost up to 30% of their water volume, and everything—sugar, tannins and acidity—all go into hyperdrive. A wine like this is built to last. Only 1,400 bottles were created." Wine Advocate
"Dark and brooding in the glass, the 2016 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva La Fabriseria smolders up with a blend of dried black cherries, cloves and mocha, lifted by hints of mint and camphor. Seamlessly silky, this smooths over the palate with opulent red and blue fruits, contrasted by a bitter tinge of balsamic spice and baking chocolate. This finishes staining and long, closing with a coating of fine-grained tannins and a resonance of grilled herbs, leaving the mouth watering for more. The freshness here is on full display, yet La Fabriseria will require patience." Vinous
