From the vintage reports of the Consorzio Tutela Vini Valpolicella
A changeable year that ended well: a dry September gave healthy grapes.
A changeable season with late flowering and a dry September that gave healthy grapes.
March was very dry; April and May brought about 210 mm, close to normal, and June almost none. July to September had about 200 mm, some 50 mm below the average. Flowering came about ten days late and veraison about nine days late. Downy mildew needed precise work in May and June, and powdery mildew caused modest damage in a few sensitive spots. Dry weather in September kept botrytis away, and picking began around 15 September.

Corte Sant’Alda is more than a winery, it’s a living expression of intuition, patience, and a deep connection to the land. Born from a need to cultivate healthier, more expressive grapes, the vineyard has evolved over decades, balancing tradition with an openness to change. The soil, the vines, and the cellar exist in harmony, each decision shaped by respect for nature’s rhythms rather than rigid control.
The story began in 1985, when an unsatisfactory harvest sparked a shift in approach. With careful adjustments to planting density and training systems, the vineyard transformed, favouring methods that encourage vitality over forced uniformity. The introduction of organic and biodynamic principles further solidified this philosophy, ensuring that every bottle reflects the land in its purest form.
In the cellar, the approach remains equally thoughtful. Grapes are hand-harvested at peak ripeness, with spontaneous fermentations led by native yeasts. The aging process unfolds in oak of varying sizes and ages, allowing each wine to develop depth and character at its own pace.
Walking through the vineyards, one is met with wild herbs and flowers, mint, chamomile, arugula, natural companions to the vines, lending their essence to the air and, perhaps, even to the wines themselves. At Corte Sant'Alda, the goal is not to tame nature, but to work alongside it, creating wines that are honest, expressive, and deeply rooted in the place they come from.
