Why it matters
The producer
Albino Armani's founding is preserved in a signed deed. Domenico Armani signed it on December 7, 1607, and the original document remains in family safekeeping. Its date and signature tie the producer to a family winegrowing history.
Albino Armani produces approximately 1,500,000 bottles annually. Its range covers white Sauvignon Blanc and red wines associated with Valpolicella.
Place and vineyards
Where the wines begin
Dolcè is Albino Armani's headquarters in Veneto. The producer operates five cellars across three Italian regions, and each cellar was created to enhance the teachings of its native land.
Wines to know
The range in view
Albino Armani's range includes Sauvignon Blanc Campo Napoleone as a white wine, with Ripasso and Amarone della Valpolicella as red wines. Campo Napoleone undergoes cold maceration, followed by long fermentation in stainless steel tanks. It matures in contact with its own yeasts until bottling.
Cold maceration keeps grape material with the must before fermentation. Stainless steel is a neutral vessel, and contact with yeast cells can add texture during maturation.
