A vigorous Amarone that amazes and envelops the senses, produced in limited quantities and only in the best vintages. Austere and complex, Amarone Il Fornetto boasts an ageing potential of up to 20 years. The grapes are harvested by hand and placed in crates, where they rest in drying rooms and the sugars are transformed into glycerine, giving the wine a velvety texture. After the dried grapes are pressed, maceration and fermentation give rise to a structured wine rich in aromas.
Characteristics of this Amarone Riserva
It has a very intense ruby red colour, with a distinctly fruity bouquet reminiscent of cherries, dried fruit, liquorice and vanilla. On the palate, it is powerful and elegant, with a long finish.
