✓ Available now

Rich, warming and full of character, this Amarone delivers layers of ripe black cherry, plum, dried fig and dark chocolate, lifted by notes of sweet spice and tobacco. Despite its intensity, there's a freshness and elegance that keeps everything in balance, with silky tannins and a long, savoury finish. A brilliant partner for slow-cooked beef, venison or a well-aged wedge of Parmigiano Reggiano.

Luigi Righetti has been producing wines in the heart of Valpolicella since the early 20th century, combining traditional methods with a meticulous approach to quality. Capitel del Roari is made using the classic appassimento method, where carefully selected grapes are dried for several months before fermentation to concentrate flavour and complexity. The wine is then matured in oak, creating an Amarone that captures the richness and depth of the style while retaining the balance and drinkability that have made Valpolicella one of Italy's most celebrated wine regions.

OUR GROWERS

Luigi Righetti

Nestled in Valgatara at the heart of the Valpolicella Classico region, the family-run Luigi Righetti estate has been crafting wines for over a century. The Righetti family’s legacy began in 1909 when Angelo Righetti began producing wines on the estate.

Today, fifth-generation winemaker Gianmaria Righetti carries on the tradition. Remarkably, his father, Luigi Righetti, who took over the estate’s operations in the 1940s and expanded production beyond local demand, is still actively involved in its day-to-day operations.

The Luigi Righetti estate has seen remarkable transformation under Gianmaria, who has expanded the wine range to include international offerings and single vineyard selections.
