Cantine di Negrar Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG

From the winery responsible for the invention of Amarone! A luscious, highly enjoyable example of this remarkably rich wine style using grapes that are dried to concentrate the flavours. Produced by the historic co-operative of Cantina di Negrar, where recent investment and renewed concentration on quality has produced some of the best-value wines of the region.

Located in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica zone on dry terraces in the hills from Negrar at an altitude between 150 and 350 metres above sea level. The vineyards are southeast facing and made up of varied soil types: silt-clay, partly calcareous and partly on Eocene marls.

Ruby red, dense and compact, this has a highly perfumed nose – intense and persistent, ethereal, fruity with hints of cherries and dried prunes, dried flowers, sweetly spiced. This is full bodied with a deliciously smooth mouth-feel and velvety tannins.

A fine companion for all grilled, braised and game meat. Perfect with aged cheese.
