Amarone della Valpolicella

Full

Cork

A blend of organically grown 60% Corvina, 30% Corvinone and 10% Rondinella, this is very lively, bright and silky as diamond-polished cherry. At nearly 1000ft in Valpantena, these 20 year old vines have been grown organically for their entire lives. After hand-harvesting, grapes are dried for three months reducing weight by up to 30% and intensifying flavours. Post fermentation, the wine spends 18-20 months ageing in French oak giving a pale garnet gleam in the glass with aromas of bay and spice with sweet chocolate and cherry. Overall the wine has high impact purity along with elegant intensity and a soaring upbeat finish. Wait for the oak tannin to give a tactile warming effect on the palate before you dive in for the next sip. And pair it with Ossobuco – scrumptious!
