Description
Still red Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG, 15.5% ABV, produced by Negrar - Domini Veneti. 2021 vintage. An Amarone, made with 70% Corvina, 15% Corvinone, and 15% Rondinella grapes, which embodies the company's philosophy, expressing a balance between elegance and structure. The grapes are dried until December-January in the drying room, then aged in 50-hl Slavonian oak barrels for 24 months and in bottle for 6-8 months. Great intensity and persistence, with ethereal, fruity aromas of black cherries in alcohol and dried plums, floral notes of dried flowers, and spicy notes.

The spirit is the same as that of the visionary cooperative founded in 1933 by the seven businessmen from Verona, just as the very same principles guide our work on a daily basis today and inspire every new project: initiative, reciprocity and collaboration.
Generations that work side by side: this is the strength of Cantina Valpolicella Negrar. It is the same strength that has enabled us to stride through history and become the benchmark producer when it comes to Amarone, Ripasso and the technique of Appassimento.
Energy and creativity on the one hand; on the other, the wisdom that comes from the experience of many vintages, leading to a generational renewal that takes place while we work together. Read more
