Of the wines from the Veneto, Valpolicella is probably the most well-known and comes from a blend of 3 principal grapes; Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara. Amarone Classico, from the Amarone della Valpolicella DOC zone, came about in 1950 most probably following a mistake in the preparation of another wine of the same grape blend, Recioto. Amarone, like Recioto, is a wine obtained from the vinification of withered grapes that have been spread out to dry for 60 to 100 days. Amarone is a complex dry red that has fantastic concentration and body along with a higher than average alcohol content as almost no grape sugar remains in the final wine. Recioto is a sweeter version of Amarone in which fermentation is stopped early to retain the natural sweetness of the grape sugar.

Allegrini’s take on the “Ripasso” method is made from a portion of grapes dried just for this wine (and not from the Amarone pomace). It's a smooth, velvety wine with ripe, juicy dark fruit and silky tannins.

The wine has a lovely and intense dark garnet colour. It exudes aromas and flavours of black cherries, chocolate, coffee, and raisins, along with a note of almonds. Despite a formidable structure, the palate is velvety, spicy and elegant, with an extremely long and lingering finish.

Amarone is the result of Allegrini’s skill in creating a modern wine with a strong connection to tradition. Sourced from Classico area hillside vineyards, grapes are dried for a rich, powerful wine with characteristic dried cherry aromas and a tremendous structure.

In a pale yellow colour shines a joyous foam that is subtle and persistent, enhancing the soft, youthful fragrance. The characteristic aroma ranges from fruity to floral. It is a soft wine, at once velvety and dry thanks to its balanced acidic notes. Splendidly balanced, it is undoubtedly a product of superior quality. The surprising freshness that tickles as it lingers, makes this wine suitable for all occasions. A fine aperitif that is also excellent with shellfish.
