Wine Description:
Tezza Corte Majoli Amarone della Valpolicella a blend of Corvina and Rondinella, emanates from the Verona region's fertile soils, rich in potassium, calcium, and magnesium, and marked by calcareous composition with ample organic content. Cultivated using Guyot and slanted Pergola Veronese techniques, the harvest unfolds in September and October. Grapes undergo meticulous drying on low-temperature, controlled-humidity drying floors. Vinification involves destemming, crushing, addition of selected yeasts, and maceration in steel tanks with daily pumping. The elixir matures for an impressive 48 months in the cellar. Ideal at 16°C, this wine harmonizes exquisitely with braised meats, roasts, matured cheese, and the classic Brasato all'Amarone (Amarone-braised meat).

Wine Expert Note:

The Tezza Corte Majoli Amarone della Valpolicella is a remarkable wine with the unique characteristics of the Valpolicella region in Italy. This wine is made using the traditional appassimento method, where the grapes are dried before fermentation, resulting in a concentrated and full-bodied wine. On the nose, this Amarone offers a complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits, such as black cherry and plum, accompanied by hints of dried herbs and spices. The aromas are intense and inviting, promising a rich and indulgent experience. The palate is equally impressive, with a velvety texture and well-integrated tannins. Flavors of blackberry, raisin, and dark chocolate dominate, providing a harmonious balance between sweetness and acidity. The wine's high alcohol content is well-managed, adding depth and warmth to the overall profile. The Tezza Corte Majoli Amarone della Valpolicella is a wine that demands attention and appreciation. It pairs exceptionally well with hearty dishes such as braised meats, aged cheeses, and game. This wine is best enjoyed in a relaxed setting, allowing its complexity to unfold sip by sip.
