Description
Still red wine made from Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, 15.5% ABV, produced by Villa della Torre. Blend: 60% Corvina, 35% Corvinone, 5% Rondinella, 2020 vintage. An Amarone that embodies the power and elegance of Valpolicella, a wine distinguished by its complexity and balance. Hints of cherry and wild marasca cherry with a pleasant, subtle note of vanilla and spice. On the palate, it has a good, well-integrated tannic structure and a lingering finish.

The originality of the building lies entirely in its conception. It was not only a country house built for utilitarian purposes and connected to the agricultural activities of the estate, but also a place conceived for the peace of body and soul according to the canons set out by authors of the Latin period, so beloved by the Italian humanist tradition. Indeed, if the texts most often considered by artistic curators of the Villa seem to be those of Vitruvian origin, recent historiographic interpretations attribute a role to biblical passages, in which it is possible to trace a constructive path in the Villa from the lower (Hell) to the upper reaches (Heaven) . This represents a mix of secularism and a sense of the sacred that is completely consistent with the personality profile of the Della Torre family, who were committed humanists but also had strong links with the Church, especially with the great bishop Gian Matteo Giberti and the milieu of the Spirituals.
