It is widely recognized for its Valpolicella, Amarone, Soave and Prosecco portfolio but also produces Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Merlot and Sangiovese wines as well. Pasqua's extensive portfolio encompasses a wide selection of wines with DOC, DOCG and IGT designations, including Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, Valpolicella Ripasso, Bardolino and Chianti Classico. The estate also produces a small selection of organic white and red wines blended from organically grown Chardonnay, Grillo, Nero d'Avola and Shiraz grapes cultivated on the island of Sicily. The estate can trace its history back to 1925, when it was founded by the Pasqua brothers in Verona, northern Veneto. Pasqua continued to grow throughout the mid-20th Century, expanding its vineyard holdings and adding a bottling plant. This expansion has continued under the guidance of the current proprietors, Carlo, Giorgio and Umberto Pasqua, who have been responsible for the estate's increased presence in the global wine market and the construction of a new winery in Veneto.
