Allegrini Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG 2020, 0,75 l

Drawing on their extensive knowledge and years of expertise, Allegrini has crafted an Amarone style that meticulously preserves and enhances the inherent fruitiness of the grapes. Traditionally, the grapes undergo a meticulous air-drying process for 3-4 months, resulting in a loss of approximately 40% of their original weight. Following this, they are gently pressed and transformed into wine. The result is a wine that exudes the unmistakable aromas of dried and candied fruit, further enriched by an extended aging period in large wooden barrels, which imparts complexity and additional flavours typical of Amarone.

This Amarone needs little introduction; it stands as a benchmark, showcasing its distinct and unique character. Complex and enchanting, it reveals new layers of flavour with every sniff. On the palate, it boasts incredible density yet maintains a soft, aromatic, and supple profile, captivating with concentrated notes of dark berries and dried, candied fruit. A subtle hint of spice lingers, further enhancing its complexity.

Ideal for pairing with game dishes, grilled meats, and braised dishes, this Amarone also shines alongside cheeses with a lengthy aging period. Best enjoyed at 18°C, consider decanting or opening the bottle two hours before serving to allow the wine to fully express its myriad of flavours.
