TASTING NOTES

Production

Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG Santa Sofia is made from a blend of Corvina and Corvinone (70%) and Rondinella (30%). After harvesting, the Recioto and Amarone grapes are left to dry for around 100 days in climate-controlled rooms, to achieve the characteristic structure and smoothness typical of these wines. After vinification, the wine is aged first for 36 months in large wooden barrels (Slavonian oak) and then for at least a further 12 months in glass bottles.

Organoleptic Characteristics

It has a deep, impenetrable ruby colour with garnet highlights. On the nose, it offers a bouquet that is bold yet delicate, with refined hints of ripe cherries, currants and prunes; chocolate, balsamic notes and hints of chocolate. On the palate, it is juicy with velvety tannins, enveloping and mature; the alcohol is well balanced by citrus freshness, making the wine substantial yet easy to drink at the same time.

Occasion and Pairing

This Venetian red wine is perfect for a Sunday lunch and pairs well with red meats such as beef stews and braised beef in red wine.

Serving Temperature

To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 16–18°C.

Allergens: Solfiti

In Pedemonte, in the heart of the Veneto region and in one of the best-known areas for the production of quality wines, stands the Santa Sofia winery, inside an ancient aristocratic villa designed and built by the renowned architect Andrea Palladio. Since the 1960s, the winery has been in the hands of the Begnoni family, which has also owned it since then. With its 53 hectares of mainly stony land, the winery, under the leadership of the family, has always had the goal of expanding its distribution both nationally and internationally. Initially intending to offer all typical Veronese productions, the company has focused on specific products and selected crops over time, the products of which are harvested in the vineyard with extreme care at every single step. Today Santa Sofia produces and distributes very structured and elegant red wines, including Valpolicella Superiore Montegradella, Recioto della Valpolicella, Bardolino, Amarone, Arlèo, Merlot Corvina and Predaia. However, there is no shortage of fresh, young whites, such as Custoza, Lugana, Pinot Grigio and Soave. Name and address of producer/distributor: Santa Sofia - Via Cà Dedè, 61, 37029 Pedemonte (VR). Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
