Description

The”Siridio’s Cycle” wines

A journey through the wines of Valpolicella, a story that unfolds among the vineyards and comes to life on the labels.

Each bottle represents a stage in Siridio’s path: from Inspiration, the moment when the desire to embark begins, to Action, the courageous step into the unknown. Then comes Realization, where determination meets destiny, leading to the Return home, enriched with experience and newfound awareness.

A journey that reflects our vision: wines that embody the tradition of Valpolicella with a contemporary soul, guided by the pursuit of balance, expression, and authenticity.

The Concept behind the Wine – Return home

The Recioto is the wine dedicated to conviviality, to gatherings with friends and relatives. It is the companion that closes the evening by telling you a story. And it is here that Siridio’s story comes into play, with his determination to reach the stars.

The label is a blend of colors and different shades that evoke various impressions:

  • The darker tones represent the coming sunset. Our hero Siridio finally returns home after a long journey that has led him to a deeper understanding of himself.
  • The lighter tones warn us that the sun is rising and the journey is not over but it has actually just begun.

In the background, we see a panoramic view of Valpolicella with vineyards and olive trees, a window with a light on, always ready to welcome us.

Whether it’s the end or the beginning, every journey starts from home.
