From Valpolicella Classico, this Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva (2017) uses the traditional appassimento method to concentrate fruit and character.
- Deep, dense color with a bouquet of dried fruit, cocoa, coffee and spice.
- Full-bodied and structured on the palate, with velvety tannins, integrated acidity and a long, persistent finish.
- Pairs well with braised beef, game dishes and aged cheeses; best with decanting and reasonable cellaring.
