Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG
This prestigious Amarone is crafted exclusively from hillside vineyards in the heart of Valpolicella Classica. Hand-picked at the beginning of October when slightly over-ripe, only the finest grapes are selected and dried in cases to concentrate their aromas and flavours. After a meticulous vinification process, the wine matures for over three years in large oak barrels, with a small portion aged in barriques for added depth, followed by additional ageing in bottle to achieve perfect harmony.
Grape Varieties:
Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and other indigenous varieties.
Region / Vineyard:
Classic Valpolicella area, northwest Verona hills. Vines average 20 years old, with some Corvina reaching 35 years, rooted in thin, stony Neolithic calcareous soils.
Vinification & Ageing:
After raisining until February, grapes undergo soft destemming and crushing, followed by long fermentation on must and marc. Aged over 3 years in large oak barrels, with 15% in barriques for refined complexity, then bottled and cellared for a further 6-8 months before release.
Tasting Notes:
Deep ruby red with garnet reflections. Aromas of oak, toasted nuts, cranberry, and marasca cherry. Full-bodied and round on the palate with elegant tannins and a lingering finish featuring cherry in spirit and subtle spice.
Food Pairing:
Perfect with roasted lamb, venison, game dishes, and mature or piquant cheeses.
Serving Recommendations:
Uncork a few hours before serving or decant to fully release its complexity.
Serving Temperature:
18-20°C.
