Contrada Palui Amarone della Valpolicella 2019 Size:Regular The Gras familyHilltop Valpolicella in Clay Amphorae. Originally from Alto Adige, Hannes Pichler moved to Valpolicella a decade ago to farm a 3 hectare abandoned cow pasture on top of a hill east of Negrar, at between 500 550 meters, the highest elevation of the DOC. With an outsiders fresh approach, Hannes planted a selection of Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone, specifically avoiding the Bordelaise varieties that he says almost everyone in the region uses today.
