2005 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOC

LAST 5 BOTTLES!

Amarone is an extremely important wine in Italian viticulture, a unique and unrepeatable symbol of the Valpolicella area. Allegrini has established itself as one of the truest interpreters of its uniqueness. It can age for 20 years.

Tasting Notes
Well-structured, complex, elegant and velvety wine, with intense ruby red colour. It has a warm and spicy bouquet, with aroma of raisins.

Food Matching
This wine is traditionally drunk with game, roasted and grilled meats, casseroles and well-matured cheeses. Excellent with hearty dishes. Amarone has a distinctive flavour which can also accompany new or exotic sweet and sour dishes. It is therefore also perfectly suited for drinking with asian and middle-eastern dishes.

Winemaking Notes
Made from dried Corvina Veronese, Rondinella and Molinara grapes by using the thousand-year-old technique of appassimento. After harvest, the grapes are left to dry for 3-4 months before fermentation. Serve at 18°C.
