More about the winery: 

Siridia is a new and independent winery based in the heart of Valpolicella Classica, founded in 2019 by siblings Samuela and Edoardo Speri. The project was born from a desire to give new life to their family’s vineyards and express a personal and contemporary vision of wine. Edoardo, Siridia’s winemaker, had previously worked for a renowned winery before choosing to build something of his own. Samuela, co-founder and export manager, brings her international experience and passion for storytelling to share Siridia’s wines and values with the world.

Today, Siridia produces 7 permanent wines, including the traditional appellations of Valpolicella, limited-edition wines and original creations such as a Vermouth and an Amaro made from Amarone’s dried grapes.
