Valpolicella DOC Célèbres depuis l'époque romaine, les collines de la Valpolicella ont toujours été un lieu symbolique pour la culture de la vigne. Le sol argilo-calcaire et le microclimat atténué par la brise du lac de Garde contribuent au développement exceptionnel des cépages autochtones, Corvina, Rondinella et Molinara. Fruit d'une ancienne tradition profondément enracinée dans le territoire, le Valpolicella DOC Le Clivie est un vin souple, élégant et très gouleyant. Un grand classique de la tradition véronaise.
