Description
Castel Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG 2018
by Società Agricola Roberto Mazzi e Figli is a bold and complex red wine crafted from a blend of traditional Veneto grapes, primarily Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara. This Amarone offers rich and intense tasting notes of dark fruit, including black cherry, plum, and dried figs, complemented by layers of spice, tobacco, and a hint of chocolate. The wine undergoes the traditional appassimento process, where the grapes are dried before fermentation, concentrating the flavors and sugars. Aged for 24 months in oak barrels, it boasts a full-bodied structure with velvety tannins and a long, warming finish. Perfectly paired with hearty dishes like braised meats, game, and rich cheeses, Castel Amarone embodies the craftsmanship and tradition of the Valpolicella region. Roberto Mazzi e Figli, a family-run estate, is known for producing wines that express the unique terroir of the Classico zone, with this Amarone standing out as a fine example of their expertise.
