It all began in 1353 when Pietro Alighieri, son of “the Supreme Poet” Dante, bought the Casal dei Ronchi vineyard in Gargagnago in the center of Valpolicella Classica, which remains at the heart of this historic property today. In 1549 when the Alighieri family found itself with only female heirs, they married into the powerful imperial Serego family, resulting in the Serego Alighieri name which the family has carried on ever since. In the forward-thinking spirit of the family, Marcantonio Serego was an enthusiastic proponent of agricultural reform, land reclamation, and of increasing the productiveness of his estates in the 16th century. Continuing the development of the estate in the 18th century, careful crop cultivation was initiated with the identification of specific sites for growing grape varieties. Later, in the 1920’s, Pieralvise Serego Alighieri founded the School of Agriculture in Gargagnago with the goal of replanting local native grape varieties, furthering their dedication to the land. Most recently, in 1973, Tenuta Serego Alighieri joined the Masi Group, with whom they share a great love for the land. The Masi Technical Group, under the leadership of Raffaele Boscaini, substitutes the figure of the winemaker with that of a team of experts including oenologists, agronomists, marketing experts, chemists, and food product technicians. The group also carries out research and experimentation in collaboration with universities and other institutions, ultimately contributing to the innovation of wines throughout the Venetian regions. Today, the property where 21 of Dante’s descendants have lived generation after generation, is a landmark site for viticulture and the embodiment of the true spirit of Valpolicella.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-01-25T12:00:40-05:00","created_at":"2024-01-18T13:52:02-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Italy","NK160124","Other_Wine","Producer_Serego Alighieri","Region_Veneto","Source_WineOnlineDelivery0124","Type_Dessert Wine","Varietal_Valpolicella Blend"],"price":34999,"price_min":34999,"price_max":34999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44216436883594,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Serego Alighieri | Vaio Armaron - NV","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":34999,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/59_3413ccf3-e450-4010-8ec4-435bd8bc2d2e.jpg?v=1705604004"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/59_3413ccf3-e450-4010-8ec4-435bd8bc2d2e.jpg?v=1705604004","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"Serego Alighieri | Vaio Armaron - NV at CaskCartel.com","id":25928387690634,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.312,"height":1200,"width":374,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/59_3413ccf3-e450-4010-8ec4-435bd8bc2d2e.jpg?v=1705604004"},"aspect_ratio":0.312,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/59_3413ccf3-e450-4010-8ec4-435bd8bc2d2e.jpg?v=1705604004","width":374}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eDessert Wine: Serego Alighieri | Vaio Armaron - NV\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn opaque ruby red color.
