Amarone della Valpolicella | Classic

Amarone, despite its worldwide success, is one of Italy's younger wine phenomena: Amarone della Valpolicella comes from the unique landscape of Valpolicella, an area in Veneto. Various grape varieties are selected for this opulent wine, including Corvina as the most important variety. The special production process - drying the grapes - results in a monumental red wine of power and richness. Hardly any other red wine has such a variety of aromas and tasting an Amarone della Valpolicella is always a special event. Many wine lovers pronounce the name 'Amarone' with the same reverence as Barolo or Brunello. Undoubtedly, the 'dry Recioto' has earned its place in the Olympus of Italian wines. - Gerardo
