Recchia Cà Bertoldi Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2015
£41.00
Amarone Reserva della Valpolicella DOCG Classico Ca’Bertoldi Recchia is made from the grapes coming from a small precious vineyard in Jago. This Italian red wine presents a perfect balance between its full body and the roundness of its taste. It ages for years in oak barrels and then in bottle. It is ideal for meditation. It surprises every time it is tasted.
The wine is deep ruby red, with intense, fruity, spicy and ethereal nose, and a full-bodied, harmonic, smooth, rounded and sapid palate. Excellent with roasts, grilled meats, game and Cheese. It can also be drunk on its own, in order to appreciate its pleasant complexity.
Vinification: the grapes are harvested by hand the first 15 days of October and let wither until they lose 35-40% of their original weight (traditional Amarone vinification process). Ageing 6 months in stainless steel tanks, 48 months in French oak barrels and 18 months in bottle.

Aron –
Great strong but well balanced wine. Very tasty! Far above most supermarket amarones. Expensive, but worth the money.
