Heletto is the signature wine of Garbole winery, one of the most fascinating and authentic producers in Valpolicella. Made with half of its blend consisting of grapes from now-forgotten native varieties, it is a rare wine by definition: only a few thousand bottles are produced each year, available at just a handful of selected retailers.

The color is deep ruby red, almost impenetrable. The nose is powerful and intriguing, with black pepper, wild blackberries, aromatic herbs, leather, and dried flowers. On the palate, it is austere and complex, with dense tannins that develop magnificently over time. A meditation wine that tells the story of a territory and forgotten grape varieties. Emporio Divino presents it as one of the signature wines in its selection.
