Description

Budding took place in the first week of April, and flowering was a few days earlier than the historical average. The slightly delayed veraison ended in mid-August. The high temperatures in August, above the seasonal average, allowed a good ripening of the grapes and an acceleration of the ripening itself, arriving at the harvest on September 10th, a bit earlier than the historical averages. 3 years maturation in large format Slavonian oak casks.

Corvina 50%, Corvinone 30%, Rondinella 15%, Oseleta 5%

Review

Savory berries and dried blackberries on the nose, together with oranges, dark chocolate and dry earth. Full-bodied and fine-grained palate, with a tight structure and fantastic balance, which indicates good aging potential. Long and savory, yet reserved. A textbook Amarone with freshness, savoriness and concentration

Tasting Profile

Nose
Very intense ruby red color, the nose reveals an enticing range of steeped cherry and fig cake flavors with accents of dried thyme, pomegranate and espresso. In the mouth it is creamy and with lightly firm tannins and acidity that’s just at the right level to accentuate and perpetuate the flavors.
Palate
The whole tasting is embellished with a very pleasant tannic texture, which fades towards a spiced finish of excellent persistence.
