Zeni Amarone della Valpolicella 'Barriques' (2018)

Produced by Zeni in the Valpolicella Classico zone of Veneto, Italy, this Amarone is made from Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella grapes, hand‑selected from hilly vineyards. The grapes undergo a 4‑month appassimento (raisining) to concentrate sugars and flavors, followed by traditional skin fermentation and 20–25 days maceration

Deep ruby red with a garnet red tinge. Pervasive on the nose, with notes of vanilla and hints of cocoa and spices. Full-bodied, harmonic, pleasantly tannin-rich, with notes of vanilla. Recommended with red meat, braised meat, game and fermented cheese.

Blend: 50% Corvinone, 40% Corvina, 10% Rondinella
