Amarone della Valpolicella Classico
€41.30
Wine made from a special selection of grapes of Corvina Veronese, Rondinella and Corvinone. The grapes are harvested only by hand in late September and early October, then left to rest in boxes until January to February, where they continue their slow natural aging, with a weight loss of 30-40%. In this way the concentration of sugars, colors and perfumes increases significantly.
