Corte Giara was established in 1989, an initiative of the famous Allegrini family and an exclusive group of wine-growers, in the Valpolicella region of the Veneto in north-east Italy. The grapes come from the Naiano Estate in the commune of Cavaion Veronese in the province of Verona, where 33 hectares are under vine. This is in the heart of the Bardolino production area near the morainal hills of Lake Garda, and here the fertile soils are ideal for the cultivation of the Veronese grape varieties. The winemaking techniques are rooted in tradition, but the products are a modern and elegant interpretation of quality wines that can be drunk as an everyday pleasure, and are every bit as good as you would expect from the Allegrini name, who have 400 years of winemaking experience behind them.
