HARVEST:
Manual and precise selection of the grapes, in October.
After the harvest, the grapes are put to dry in well aired rooms for 3-4 months. After the grape pressing, the must vinifies with maceration on the skins for 15-20 days at 23-25 °C temperature.
At the end of vinification, the wine matures for 36 months in Slavonian oak barrels. Before the commercialization the wine matures 6 months in bottle.
With an intense ruby-garnet colour, Amarone Riserva reveals seductive ripe fruit and jam perfumes, with fresh candied citrus peel and an elegant sensation of aromatic herbs. On the palate it is a warm, rich and structured wine, with a strong fruity character until the final.
75 cl Bordeaux-style bottles.
