Production Technique
The grapes are harvested in the first twenty days of September. The finest and healthiest bunches are placed in trays, with utmost care taken not to damage the grapes. They are then moved to dedicated dry, well-ventilated fruit stores where they are left to wither until winter, losing up to 40% of their weight.

Winemaking Process
De-stalking and gentle pressing. Maceration lasting approximately 45 days, during which manual punching down and pumping over is carried out. Fermentation temperature of 20 degrees C. After being drawn off, the wine is transferred into casks and then into large Slavonian oak barrels. After being left to mature for around 24 months, the wine then undergoes further aging in the bottle.

Organoleptic Properties
The fertile land, full of history, and our family's passion and hard work have created this legendary wine, the symbol of this region: Amarone! Ruby red in color with an intense and elegant bouquet. A full-bodied, strong flavor that's warm, soft, velvety, and long-lasting. The perfect accompaniment to game, spit-roasted meat, roasts, and mature cheese. It is recommended that you open the bottle at least one hour before drinking and serve it at 16-18 degrees C.

Tasting Notes: This has smoky and chocolaty aromas of raisins, dried herbs, spices and plum skin. Full-bodied with dense tannins that are tightly woven into the fruit. Rich and warm but well integrated, with a firm finish. Better from 2026.
