Stars from the Consorzio Tutela Vini Valpolicella, for Amarone della Valpolicella
A very good, cooler year. A wet spring, then a fine summer and ripe grapes.
A return to the normal calendar: a cool year with complete ripeness.
The winter was close to average. April to June was wet and humid, and downy mildew tested the growers. After a slightly rainy July, August was fine, so the grapes ripened well and the earlier problems faded. Light hail fell in small patches without effect. Dry, slightly warm weather with sharp night cooling at harvest, from 22 September, brought full ripeness of skins and seeds and healthy grapes.
Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG Classico Riserva “Fumetto” by Secondo Marco
“Fumetto” is the Amarone Riserva by Secondo Marco winery, a wine that represents Marco Speri’s desire to create an exceptional wine capable of competing with the renowned wine producers, Dal Forno and Quintarelli.
The vineyards are located in the heart of Valpolicella, at the foot of the Lessini Mountains, in the most famous and historical areas, specifically in Fiumane.
Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Fumetto is made up of 55% Corvina, 35% Corvinone, and 10% Rondinella grapes. The prolonged maceration takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks, and after malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged for 1 year in cement and 7 years in large Slavonian oak barrels. It completes its maturation with an additional 3 years in the bottle.
The label is divided into vignettes that represent the most important events that occurred in 2008, the year of the harvest of the Amarone Fumetto Secondo Marco.
Selected by AIS Veneto as the best aged wine, the Amarone Riserva Fumetto 2008 is a fresh wine, with an incredible vivacity on the nose that is maintained even after almost 10 years. The mature red fruit dominates the scene, followed by balsamic and citrus notes. It enters the palate silently and then explodes with an almost endless aromatic persistence. What a wine!
This is a high-level Amarone, ideal for collectors. Only 3000 bottles were produced.

At the heart of Valpolicella Classica stands Secondo Marco, a winery born in 2008 from Marco Speri's vision to honor his family's winemaking roots while forging his own path. Coming from one of the region's historic winemaking families, Marco brings generations of knowledge to his 17-hectare estate near Fumane.
The winery represents the creative tension between tradition and innovation. Marco's approach comes through clearly in his quote: "When you continue a family tradition, on the one hand there is the fear of change, and on the other hand there is the desire to do something new, to leave an imprint that can be seen by future generations."
This philosophy extends to his innovative vineyard management. While the region traditionally used the Veronese pergola system before modern Guyot training methods took over, Marco developed a unique Y-shaped trellis inspired by the old pergola. This design increases light exposure, leaf surface area, and air circulation, creating ideal conditions for grape ripening while preventing sun damage and mold.
The estate benefits from Valpolicella's exceptional terroir, limestone-rich soils perfectly suited to native red grape varieties like Corvina, Corvinone, Molinara, Rondinella, and Oseleta. The climate, moderated by northern winds and Lake Garda's breezes, creates the temperature variations essential for developing complex flavors.
In the cellar, Marco employs straightforward vinification processes that respect the grapes' natural characteristics while highlighting their finest qualities. Extended aging produces wines of notable elegance that maintain freshness and fragrance.
With annual production of 85,000 bottles, Secondo Marco represents one man's quest to respect his past while creating something distinctly his own, a vision that, as his father Benedetto wisely noted, ultimately finds its judgment "in a glass of wine, to be savored, to be smelled. And when you can share it with others, then you know you have done the right thing."
