Description
This is a magical moment: open a bottle and pour the Amarone into the glass. Immediately a spicy bouquet is released, with typical notes of red fruit and in particular blackberry cherries, then on the palate it brings balance, warmth and lingering softness. For us, our Amarone is the highest expression of the appassimento technique on dry red still wines. In addition to having the classic scents of red fruit, blackberry and cherry, it has a very persistent spicy part (cocoa, leather, chocolate, tobacco, incense) and then a balsamic and mentholated part, characteristic of our valley and our soils. A very elegant and fine Amarone where drinkability is the key, thanks also to the very low residual sugar content. A vertical wine, soft and silky, but never heavy.

The idea that a wine must age for many years to reach its full expression is the foundation of our winemaking philosophy. Although it may be different and complicated in the world of wine, this choice represents our deep conviction, and our wines are tangible evidence of this. The wine can develop its complex layers and reveal its most precious nuances with the help of a patient and meticulous aging process.
The tradition is something we cherish and renew every day. Our wines will transport you and fill you with a unique atmosphere, wherever you are. Read more
