Val d'Arno di Sopra

Wine · PDO · 14 municipalities

Recognized since 2011, the Val d'Arno di Sopra DOC encompasses municipalities like Arezzo and Bucine, where 23 verified producers craft distinctive wines. What sets this denomination apart from its Tuscan neighbors is a strict prohibition on both enrichment (arricchimento) and sweetening (dolcificazione) for any wine type. This commitment to purity extends across all categories, including the Rosato Spumante di Qualità, which requires a minimum of 48 months on the lees. Standard reds require at least 12.0% alcohol by volume and must contain a minimum of 40% Merlot, ensuring a robust, unadulterated expression of the valley.
