Description
Still red, Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG, 16% ABV, produced by Rubinelli Vajol, 2017 vintage. An Amarone that tells the story of a family that has always lived in Valpolicella, with select grapes that rested for four months in the drying room dug into the tuff, where the natural drying process took place. Aged in 30 hl oak barrels for approximately 18 months. Distinctive aromas of ripe red fruits preserved in alcohol and slightly dried, infused with pleasant spicy notes of licorice and pepper. Intense ruby red color. On the palate, it offers a warm and velvety sensation, a rounded wine with well-balanced flavors, refined, measured sensations that caress the senses. Perfect with red meats, aged cheeses, and rich dishes.
