Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✧✧

This wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals an olfactory profile mainly of fruit with good and intense aromas of black cherry, blueberry, blackberry, plum, vanilla and violet. In the mouth is very balanced and agreeable, good correspondence to the nose and good body, pleasing tannins well balanced by alcohol. The finish is persistent with flavors of black cherry, blackberry and plum. This wine is produced with the classic technique of "ripasso" which consists in macerating Amarone's skins in Valpolicella classico wine after it has been decanted in march. The wine is aged for 2 years in cask and for 6 months in bottle.
