Stars from the Consorzio Tutela Vini Valpolicella, for Amarone della Valpolicella
A very good year. Warm weather, plenty of water and a balanced harvest.
A warm year with good water reserves, balanced ripening and a slightly early harvest.
Spring was cold at first, then warm, with repeated spells of cold air and a lot of rain in the hills. Early summer was cool and unstable; from late July it turned hot, with local storms. Strong storms in early September caused local damage, with landslides and flooding in some vineyards. Harvest began on 10 September, four days ahead of the average, with good sugar, balanced acidity and heavier berries thanks to plenty of water.

The small winery Monte dei Ragni was born from the long winemaking tradition of the Ragno family, active for five generations, and from Zeno Zignoli’s ability to turn a small artisanal wine production into an authentic gem of Valpolicella. Today, Monte dei Ragni has become a cult name for enthusiasts and for anyone seeking wines that express territory, nature, and time, without compromising with market logic or conventional practices.
Monte dei Ragni takes its name from a notation found in a nineteenth-century land registry, which identified a small piece of land on a ridge in the municipality of Fumane, in the heart of Valpolicella Classica. It consists of just 8 hectares of land, of which only a little over 2 hectares are planted with vines. Zeno Zignoli cultivates them with determination and deep love for the land, avoiding all synthetic chemical interventions and preserving the region’s biodiversity: olive trees, grains, fruit trees, and vegetables grow among the vines. In addition Zeno, works the land with the help of a horse and opposes herbicide use, considered deplorable, by practicing the “care of grass,” which includes green manure crops composed of over 36 different species.
The wines of Monte dei Ragni are produced in very small quantities and exhibit a quality, sense of place, and expressiveness that leave one speechless. For Zeno, only the cultivation of the land and culture make a man truly free, and his wines are the result of a life philosophy that primarily seeks to preserve the integrity, balance, and beauty of the land.
