Tasting Notes
Vintage 2018was characterized by generally positive climatic conditions, despite above-average rainfall in spring. Heavy rain in May meant that prompt and thorough preventative measures had to be undertaken to protect the vines, which successfully safeguarded their health. The marked differences in day-night temperatures helped to maintain acidity and facilitated the development of the
specific flavour characteristics of each varietal. Vintage 2018 promises to be one of the best years ever, outstanding for its great balance and elegance.
it has imposing structure and depth, as well as aromas of mature fruit and spices. On the palate, where the alcohol is sustained by the right degree of acidity and refined tannins.
Traditionally enjoyed with game, roasted and grilled meats, casseroles and well matured cheeses. Amarone’s distinctive flavour compliments exotic sweet and sour cuisine and is therefore also perfect with Asian and middle-eastern dishes.
