Accolades

The presence of grape cultivation was first documented in 1028, though oral traditions hold that vines were grown on the grounds of Novare long before. The first significant production of wine is credited to Fattori, owner of the estate from 1679 to 1769. For instituting a substantial change in cultivation practices and for the expansion and refinement of enological technique, however, credit is due to Luigi and Cesare Trezza who significantly altered the estate between the years of 1868 and 1931. In those days, wine produced at Novare was already well-known but when, in 1820, Trezza acquired the 230-hectare estate, only 30 were being used for the cultivation of grapes. In eight years, the cultivated area was increased to 85 hectares and eventually to 110. At the end of 1883, the cellars of Novare held about 3,000 hectolitres of vintage wine plus some hundreds of hectolitres more to be aged for a minimum of three years in oak barrels and then bottled. In 1957 the estate was purchased and renovated by the Bertani family.

The grapes are produced in the vineyards of Tenuta Novare in Arbizzano of Negrar in the heart of Valpolicella Classica. The soil is of different composition calcareous, tuffaceous, volcanic and clay.
