This Amarone is produced on the highest hills of Marano di Valpolicella, in vineyards cultivated on volcanic soil. The selected grapes (Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, Molinara, and Oseleta) are dried naturally until February. Slow fermentation takes place in cherry wood, followed by aging for seven years in tonneaux and at least two years in bottle , resulting in a wine of great elegance and complexity.

Organoleptic characteristics:
