Wine description
Amarone Classico della Valpolicella is the result of the Allegrini family’s expertise, a true classic of the appellation, this red wine embraces tradition, territory and the know-how of country ways. Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Oseleta grapes are left to air dry and are checked daily to ensure perfectly healthy grapes. Aafter a vinification in steel and a long aging in barrique the result is a wine with great structure and depth, as much in its aromas of mature fruit and spices, as on the palate, where the alcohol is sustained by the right degree of acidity and refined tannins.
