Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva DOCG 'Fieramonte' 2016 (750 ml.) Allegrini
Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva DOCG Fieramonte 2016 by Allegrini comes from a historic vineyard at an altitude of 415 meters, with calcareous and well-drained soils that give great concentration to the grapes. The 2016 vintage was exceptional, with balanced weather and cool nights that favored a slow and complete ripening, providing perfect balance between sugars, acidity, and tannins. After the manual harvest, the grapes are left for natural drying for over 120 days, developing intense aromas and complexity. After fermentation, it undergoes 48 months of aging in new French oak barriques plus 6 months in the bottle. A majestic, elegant, and long-lived wine, with aromas of fruit in spirit, spices, and cocoa, a velvety sip, and an endless finish. It pairs well with game, braised meats, and aged cheeses, also perfect as a meditation wine.
