TASTING NOTES

Production

The Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is a dry red wine resulting from a blend of Corvina and Rondinella grapes from vineyards in Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella. After harvest, the grapes are left to dry for 4 months until January, when they are pressed and fermented. The wine then ages for 4 years in large Slavonian oak barrels and rests for a period in the bottle before leaving the cellar. It is an important wine, classy, and a flagship of the winery.

Organoleptic Characteristics

Intense ruby red in color with garnet reflections. On the nose, it offers a complex aromatic profile consisting of brandied sour cherries, plum, amarena, ripe blackberry, and blueberry, accompanied by distinct sweet spice notes along with aromas of tobacco, leather, eucalyptus, and underbrush. On the palate, it is very intense, structured, and opulent, almost creamy, with a very long finish.

Occasion and Pairing

A wine that can age for up to 20 years. A Veneto red to reserve for special occasions. Best enjoyed with red meat dishes such as roasts, steaks, and game.

Serving Temperature

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

Allergens: Solfiti

THE WINERY

Zenato

The Venetian shore of Lake Garda, a splendid area with a mild, almost Mediterranean climate due to the proximity of the lake: this is where the well-known morainic soil of Lugana and Valpolicella is found. And this is where the Zenato winery stands. With an extension of 75 hectares of vines, the company is developed around the estates of Santa Cristina, in a small municipality near Peschiera del Garda, and Costalunga. The cultivations are respectively linked to Trebbiano di Lugana and Valpolicella, from which precious Veneto wines and renowned wines are obtained. From the carefully cultivated grapes, the winery produces white wines of immense quality, such as Lugana DOC San Benedetto and Lugana DOC Metodo Classico, and unrivalled reds, such as Amarone and Bardolino DOC. Name and address of producer/distributor: Zenato - Strada San Benedetto, 8, 37019 Peschiera del Garda (VR). Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
