Indulge in the exquisite Nicolis Ambrosan Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, a testament to the rich winemaking tradition of the Veneto region. This magnificent red wine, crafted by the esteemed Nicolis winery, is a true masterpiece, showcasing the unique character of the Valpolicella terroir. The Ambrosan Amarone, a dry, full-bodied, red wine, is a compelling choice for those who seek a profound wine experience. The wine, crafted with the traditional 'appassimento' technique where the grapes are dried to concentrate the flavors and complexity, is a blend of indigenous grapes such as Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara. This results in a wine with a deep ruby color, a symphony of aromas ranging from ripe dark fruits like plums and cherries to subtle hints of spices, leather, and chocolate. The palate is rich and velvety with a long, lingering finish, and will continue to evolve beautifully in the bottle for many years to come. The high alcohol content of 16% adds to its structure and warmth, which makes this wine a perfect accompaniment to hearty dishes such as roasted game, braised meats, and aged cheeses. Its complex notes make it also wonderful for meditation. The bottle requires 30 minutes of breathing and a serving temperature of 18°C to fully release its potential. Nicolis is a family-owned winery in the heart of the Valpolicella region, known for its commitment to quality and tradition, crafting wines that reflect the unique character of the terroir. The combination of meticulous grape selection, appassimento process and dedicated winemaking creates a wine that is nothing short of extraordinary. Priced at 5500 THB, this bottle of the Nicolis Ambrosan Amarone from 2007 is not just a wine; it's a gateway to the captivating world of Italian winemaking. Whether you are a seasoned wine connoisseur or a novice looking for an exceptional wine to savor, this Amarone will leave you with an unforgettable experience. The wine shows how Nicolis is a benchmark of excellence in the Valpolicella region.
