Amarone Della Valpolicella DOCG Classico Riserva - Scriani

Vinification

After a period of the natural air drying room, which varies from 90 to 110 days, the crushing of the grapes takes place in 50 hl oak casks. Fermentation with the must in contact with the grape skins for 30-40 days follows without added yeast thanks to the integrity of the grapes.

Ageing: refinement takes place in 350 liter barrels for 16-18 months and aging in the bottle for another six months.

Tasting Notes

Intense ruby with a tendency towards garnet red, a pure and clean bouquet of red fruits and berries, cherry jam, and cherries under spirit; on the palate flavors of vanilla, spice, licorice, and bitter almonds.

Food Pairings

It combines beautifully with robust dishes such as venison or roast meats and very mature cheeses but is also a great sipping wine. Temperature: To be served at 18-20° and uncorked at least two hours before.
