“Rhèba,” in the Cimbrian language, means “vine plant.”
It is produced by macerating Valpolicella Classico with the pomace of Amarone at the end of fermentation. This technique enhances the wine’s structure, aromatic complexity, and longevity.
Rhèba is aged for 16 months in second-use oak tonneaux. This process softens the tannins through micro-oxygenation and develops an optimal balance between primary and tertiary notes.

The Marconi Winery: A History of Tradition and Passion
The origins of the Marconi Winery date back to the late 1800s when the Marconi family moved from the Cimbrian land of Sant’Anna d’Alfaedo (VR) to the plains, purchasing their first plots of land. Over the years, they specialized in viticulture, growing alongside the phenomenon of Valpolicella and Amarone.
In 2019, Giulia Marconi, the third generation of the family, fulfilled her lifelong dream of opening a small winery. Her son Gabriele, who graduated in enology from the University of Trento with top marks in 2023, has contributed to the production of the first wines.
The winery consists of small plots in the Valpolicella Classica area, all certified organic. Here, they cultivate varieties such as Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella, as well as ancient native vines like Oseleta, Corbina, and Pelara.
The wines produced aim to be as sincere and respectful an expression as possible of a complex and varied territory, reflecting the passion and dedication of the Marconi family.
