Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2015 from Bertani Winery is a premium red wine crafted in the Valpolicella Classica region at the Tenuta Novare estate. This wine is a harmonious blend of 80% Corvina Veronese and 20% Rondinella, grown on limestone and volcanic soils.
With an alcohol content of 15.5%, this wine boasts a rich and intense flavor profile, featuring aromas of ripe red and black cherries, hints of maraschino cherry, and spiced notes of pepper and cinnamon, complemented by subtle undertones of cigars and forest floor.
Bertani is a renowned winery from the Valpolicella region in Italy, founded in 1857 by brothers Giovanni Battista and Gaetano Bertani in Quinto di Valpantena, north of Verona. Gaetano acquired his winemaking expertise in France, studying under the famous Professor Jules Guyot, which enabled the winery to combine innovative techniques with local tradition.
