In the heart of the Valpolicella Classica, the "Corte Fornaledo" winery was founded. Giacomo and Francesco, the Borghetti brothers, have in their barrels distinctive wines of the Valpolicella Classica that are aging and soon will be ready to be enjoyed.
From the 2009 vintage, we have started a new path.
We started making wine with a part of our grapes producing our classic wines (Amarone Classico Riserva, Amarone Classico, Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso, Valpolicella Classico Superiore and Recioto Classico). In March 2011 we sold our first "Recioto della Valpolicella Classico 2009" and in May 2011 our "Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2009" will be ready, too.
In our small way, we have always been sensitive to the environment in which we live every day, in respect of health and also in respect of those less fortunate than others. Already in the 80s our dad Giovanni Battista Borghetti had turned to African students for various seasonal jobs in the country (he was a true precursor) and now we are in close cooperation with the social cooperative Pantarei that deals with giving new possibilities to political refugee children, especially from Africa.
But our sensitivity has reached a milestone when we made the labels of our wines by entering part of the text in Braille for blind people (already visible on all our bottles of Recioto 2009).
