WINE DESCRIPTION
Carefully selected grapes are dried in well-ventilated rooms for approximately three months. Once they reach the ideal drying level, the grapes are pressed and undergo maceration in warmed steel tanks. The fermentation process takes about 30 days to develop the wine's high alcohol content. The wine then ages for three years in large oak barrels during the following winter. After bottling, the wine rests for an additional three months in the bottle.
The result is a wine with a robust red color and garnet reflections, a fruity bouquet with spicy notes, and a full velvety flavor. Pairs excellently with main courses, game, grilled meat, and aged sheep cheeses.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Sartori di Verona Reius Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is a prestigious wine from the Valpolicella region in Italy.This wine is made using the traditional appassimento method, where the grapes are dried before fermentation, resulting in a rich and concentrated flavor profile.
On the nose, this Amarone offers a captivating bouquet of ripe dark fruits, such as black cherry and plum, accompanied by hints of dried figs and raisins. These aromas are complemented by notes of tobacco, leather, and a touch of vanilla from the oak aging.
The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with a luscious texture that coats the mouth. The flavors mirror the aromas, with an emphasis on the ripe fruit character. The dark fruits are joined by layers of chocolate, coffee, and a subtle spiciness that adds complexity to the wine. The well-integrated tannins provide structure and balance, leading to a long and satisfying finish.
