Description

Imagine yourself transported to the rolling hills of Veneto, Italy, where the Sartori family has been crafting exceptional wines since 1898. The Sartori Amarone della Valpolicella 2013 is a testament to their dedication and passion, a wine that embodies the rich history and unique terroir of the Valpolicella region. This is not just a wine; it's an experience, a journey for your senses that will leave you wanting more.

The Amarone is crafted using the appassimento method, where the finest Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes are carefully dried for several months, concentrating their flavors and sugars. This meticulous process results in a wine of incredible depth and complexity. Its bold aromas of ripe cherries, black currants, and dried figs intermingle with seductive notes of dark chocolate, sweet spice, and a touch of balsamic. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and velvety, with a perfect balance of fruit, acidity, and tannins. The long, lingering finish is a symphony of flavors that will stay with you long after the last sip.

This Amarone is a versatile wine that can be enjoyed on its own as a contemplative indulgence or paired with a wide range of dishes. Its richness and complexity make it an ideal match for hearty meat dishes like roasted lamb, braised beef, or game. It also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses, such as Parmesan or Pecorino, and dark chocolate desserts. For a truly unforgettable experience, try it with a slow-cooked Osso Buco or a rich truffle risotto.

But more than just its taste, this wine tells a story. From the careful selection of grapes in the vineyard to the meticulous drying process, from the time spent aging in oak barrels to the moment it reaches your glass, every step in the creation of this Amarone is a testament to the Sartori family's commitment to quality. This is a wine that is meant to be savored, shared, and celebrated. Open a bottle of Sartori Amarone della Valpolicella 2013 and let it transport you to the heart of Italy, where tradition and passion come together to create something truly extraordinary. This wine should be opened at least 30 minutes before drinking and served at around 18°C to allow the aromas to fully develop. It is bottled in a corked bottle so be prepared. The perfect evening is waiting, don't let it wait any longer!
