Ca dei Frati Amarone della Valpolicella Pietro Dal Cero 2018

Still red Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG, 16% ABV, produced by Ca dei Frati. Blend: Corvina, Corvinone, Croatina, Rondinella. 0.75 L bottle, 2018 vintage. An Amarone that embodies the passion and dedication of the Dal Cero family, with a history dating back to 1939. Aged in barrique for 24 months, followed by 12 months in steel and 24 months in bottle. The fruit is exuberant, with a delightful black cherry that blends with notes of chocolate and sweet spices. A deep ruby color that captivates with its timbre and intensity. The finesse elevates the floral component of purple rose. Balsamic notes emerge more and more convincingly, with hints of star anise and wild mint. The tertiary elements are subtle, revealing pleasant notes of arabica and gentle tobacco. A complex and enveloping wine, perfect for pairing with red meats, aged cheeses, and rich dishes.
