Vineyard Info
The history of the Casa Vitivinicola Tinazzi began with the commitment and passion of Eugenio Tinazzi at the end of the 1960s in Cavaion Veronese, part of the splendid hinterland of Lake Garda. Gian Andrea Tinazzi, the founder’s son, then only 18 years of age, worked alongside his father in running the business and gradually broadened the company's horizons, both in terms of production and markets. Today, Gian Andrea’s children, Francesca and Giorgio, work with their father in managing what has become a major production group based in Lazise, on Lake Garda. The family owns vineyards and estates not only in Veneto, in the areas of Bardolino and Valpolicella, but also in another region of great character and growing qualitative potential, Apulia, a region they love and which they always believed had great winemaking potential. TINAZZI Valpolicella Ripasso is made from selected vineyards in a hilly area at 150-300 metres above sea level in Valpolicella.
