Sant'Urbano Valpolicella Classico Superiore DOC

The Sant'Urbano represents what Valpolicella Classico Superiore can be at its best: not a copy of Amarone, but an independent red wine with both depth and freshness.

Speri Viticoltori has been cultivating vineyards in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica region around Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella for five generations. The family is one of the most reliable names in the region — with a clear focus on the Classico area and its characteristic limestone and clay soils. Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara form the classic blend.

After 24 months of aging in Slavonian oak and tonneau, the Sant'Urbano reveals notes of ripe sour cherry, blackberry, and a spicy undergrowth aroma on the nose — accompanied by a hint of clove and tobacco. On the palate, it has a medium body, tannins with good structure without harshness, lively acidity, and a long, slightly earthy finish. Not a heavy wine — rather one that makes you want to pour another glass.

Speri Viticoltori

Sometimes all it takes is a family secret passed down through seven generations. That's exactly what you'll experience at Speri Viticoltori in the heart of Valpolicella. Since 1874, the family has dedicated themselves to winemaking with passion and vision – today with 60 hectares of vineyards and an impressive philosophy: only their own grapes, only organic farming, and only native grape varieties such as Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara.

Their masterpiece? The Amarone Sant'Urbano , which, after 24 months of aging in oak barrels, impresses with its elegance and depth. But the Ripasso , with its spicy aromas of clove and cinnamon, is also an experience. These wines aren't loud, they whisper – and that's precisely what makes them so special.
