Description

Ah, you're looking at a bottle of pure Italian artistry! The Tutela Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG is more than just wine; it's an experience, a journey into the heart of Veneto. Hailing from the prestigious Valpolicella region, this Amarone is crafted with meticulous care, reflecting the rich history and traditions of Italian winemaking. This Amarone is made primarily from Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes. These grapes are partially dried on mats, a process known as 'appassimento,' concentrating their flavors and sugars, which contributes to the wine's intensity and complexity. The appassimento method gives the Amarone its unique character, transforming it into a wine of exceptional depth and richness. The 2021 vintage, in particular, has been a remarkable year for Valpolicella, with optimal weather conditions yielding grapes of superb quality.

On the palate, expect a symphony of flavors. It's a dry red wine that delivers a powerful punch of ripe, dark cherry, and plum notes, intertwined with hints of chocolate and sweet spice. The tannins are velvety smooth, providing a luxurious mouthfeel, and the finish is long and lingering. It is a complex wine with great structure, good acidity and tannins that integrate well with the generous fruit. A wine of character, capable of evolving for a long time.

This Amarone pairs beautifully with rich, savory dishes. Imagine it alongside a hearty beef stew, roasted game, or aged cheeses like Parmesan or Pecorino. It’s also a fantastic accompaniment to dark chocolate desserts. If you're looking to impress or simply treat yourself, this Amarone is a perfect choice. It's not just a bottle of wine; it's a statement of sophistication and a celebration of life's finer pleasures. Pour a glass, take a sip, and let the Tutela Amarone transport you to the rolling hills of Valpolicella. Before you do that, uncork the bottle around 30 minutes before to allow for the wine to breathe.
