Product information on "Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG" from the Cesari winery in Veneto
The Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG from the Cesari winery is a great classic of Northern Italy and is produced using the traditional Appassimento method, in which the grapes are dried before vinification. This gives the wine its enormous concentration and depth. In the glass, it shows a dense garnet red with brick-red reflections.
On the nose, dried cherries, raisins, figs, bitter orange, dark chocolate, coffee, and cedarwood unfold. On the palate, the Amarone is opulent, warm, and yet surprisingly precise, with dense fruit, a powerful body, ripe, silky tannins, and fine balsamic spice. The finish is very long, complex, and supported by dark chocolate and spices.
A meditation wine of great depth and elegance for special occasions.
