Montressor Bio is a project from one of Verona’s historic houses, founded by Giacomo Montresor in 1892, with a reputation for high quality and affordable Valpolicella and Amarone. In recent years, the range has grown steadily with vineyards being developed in Friuli and northern Veneto, around Conegliano. In 2021 Montresor launched its new organic project, a range of ‘Montresor Bio’ wines. Some of its wines are already bottled in a lighter weight glass bottle (less than 420g) to reduce carbon dioxide emissions during transport, with the added benefit of reducing the amount of glass to be manufactured. Solar panels are being installed at the winery to provide some of the electricity required in the production process; plus, a water purification system to recover and recycle the water used at the winery.
We love this entire range. Each wine shows enormous personality, demonstrating brilliant varietal character or the beauty of the blend. Organically produced, with fantastic sustainable credentials, these wines are exceptional value for money and very easy to enjoy!
