Amarone differs from Valpolicella for two simple reasons. The first concerns the length of the drying period, which in this case lasts for three long months, instead of one and a half. The second refers to the age of the vineyard. In fact, our company philosophy requires that, to produce Amarone, only grapes harvested from vines that are more than ten years old should be used. The youngest vines are therefore used only for the production of Valpolicella. With the exception of these two differences and some other small variations in the percentage of varieties used, it can be said that these two wines are almost identical, in the sense that the process underlying their production and MATURATION: is exactly the same. That said, Amarone stands out from its younger brother in terms of power and elegance. Undoubtedly, the complexity of this wine is superior to that of Valpolicella and places it in that category of wines that we usually define as meditation wines. Complex aromatic notes, ranging from black cherries, to blueberries, to chocolate, foreshadow that sumptuous expression of ripe fruit that flows in the mouth with invasive persistence. The finish closes with sinuous nuances of truffle, tobacco and new leather. It is a wine with still unknown potential, but whose depth gives hope for a long, very long evolution ahead of it. The grapes destined for Amarone come exclusively from vineyards that have exceeded a minimum age of 10 years.
