Tasting Notes

Deep ruby red in color, this Amarone opens with complex aromas of dried fruit, jam, underbrush, walnut husk, leather, ripe plum, cinnamon, and spice. The palate is balanced, rich, delicate, austere, and long-lasting, with powerful concentration, well-integrated acidity, ripe vivid tannins, and a persistent spicy finish.

Food Paring

Pair this Amarone Classico with savory red meats, game, beef or venison stews, dark mushroom dishes, and long-aged cheeses. Its rich texture, dried-fruit depth, and persistent spice also make it a luxurious meditation wine for slow sipping after dinner.
