The result of grape drying and lengthy ageing in oak barrels, it reveals itself in the glass with an intense ruby red colour and delicate garnet highlights. The bouquet is deep, marked by clear notes of black cherry, dried plum and wild berries, integrated with elegant nuances of preserved fruit, cocoa, caramel and fine spices. On the palate it is \u003cstrong\u003ewarm and enveloping\u003c\/strong\u003e, supported by a soft texture and dense fruit that enhances a \u003cstrong\u003ewell-integrated spiciness\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis red originates in the Valpolicella Classica, the hilly area north of Verona. The grapes come from \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-altitude vineyards\u003c\/strong\u003e selected within the historic area, ideal for promoting optimal concentration of the bunches. The geological nature of the subsoil, dominated by \u003cstrong\u003ered and brown soils\u003c\/strong\u003e on debris with limestone marl and basalt, directly influences the wine's identity. This soil composition ensures remarkable \u003cstrong\u003earomatic complexity\u003c\/strong\u003e and intense colour depth, forging a broad structure with a strong territorial character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins with the rigorous manual selection of the best bunches. The grapes then rest on racks for a \u003cstrong\u003ethree-month drying period\u003c\/strong\u003e, a crucial phase to concentrate sugars, aromas and glycerine in the berries. This is followed by traditional fermentation, enriched by a \u003cstrong\u003eskin maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e of twenty to twenty-five days to fully extract colour and structure. The evolution is completed by resting in \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for a period ranging from two to four years, a fundamental step to impart harmony and stability to the sip.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA true gem from the Zeni winery, the Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Vigne Alte 2019 boasts an international reputation consolidated by outstanding scores, such as the prestigious 93 points awarded by Decanter and James Suckling, the four vines from VITAE, and the gold medal at Mundus Vini.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Zeni","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46460336472235,"sku":"61240","price":50.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/zeni-amarone-della-valpolicella-vigne-alte-2019_61240_1_a013213f-8cee-47b0-99e4-1a0f8ae0ded6.webp?v=1779985322","url":"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/products\/zeni-amarone-della-valpolicella-vigne-alte-2019","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
