Perfect combination of technique and tradition
Corte Alta
Our winery is located in Valpolicella Classica, on the hills of Fumane in the hamlet of Cavalo, 500 meters above sea level.
Corte Alta extends to over 10 hectares of vineyards planted with traditional Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella, traditional grape varieties of the area.
Founded by family Accordini, it is a project that began in 2008 and it is the result of the innovative ideas of Giacomo, Paolo, Marco, and it is supervised by Daniele and Tiziano Accordini.
Our Vineyards
The desire to recover traditional values of this area and to give wines greater identity and character has led Corte Alta to cultivate rediscovered, precious and little-known ancient grape varieties. The vineyards are located between Cavalo and Mazzurega and have been productive since 2003.
Valpolicella boasts a diverse geological landscape, imparting distinctive traits to its wines. The soils vary significantly: gypsum rich in the valley of Fumane, volcanic in Cavalo, rocky and chalky in the valley of Negrar, and marked by the presence of red marble around Sant’Ambrogio di Valpolicella.

and production
Experience with the drying process to produce Recioto and Amarone, combined with a modern stylistic interpretation, has led to the production of a “Feritas” (True Strength) obtained through the light drying process of Corvina grapes and a small amount of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.
The new wine cellar built in 2010 succeeds in controlling all production phases from the drying process of the grapes to the ageing in barrels and barriques, to the bottling of the wines, managing the entire production chain and thus guaranteeing consistent quality of the wines produced.
An exceptional panoramic position
The winery, surrounded by vineyards, is set in a wonderful panoramic position, with the extraordinary scenery of Lessini mountains behind it and a terrace on Verona to the south, an ideal combination of art, wine, and territory.
