Pieropan `Vigna Garzon` Amarone della Valpolicella

While renowned for their white wines, the Pieropan family also produce exceptional Valpolicella and Amarone from their 16-hectare property in the Val d‘Illasi (to the west of Soave Classico), which they bought in 1999. Thanks to the vineyard’s elevation of 40 metres above sea level, the wines produced here have a particularly ethereal character.

Brilliant and intense ruby red in colour, this is a wine with a heady perfume of black cherries, blackberries and red plum with notes of pepper and sweet spice. On the palate it is complex and rounded, with a powerful structure supporting the fruit and a lovely freshness on the finish. A wine with plenty of character with the potential to age well.
