Amarone della Valpolicella - Classico DOCG
The most important wine in the Veneto region.
Amarone is refined in oak casts and is strong red in colour. With hints of cherry, plum and sour black cherry, it is warm, supple and well balanced.
Amarone pairs well with roasted or grilled red meats and cheeses. Try it alongside a dish made from our Tuscan sausages or some finely sliced salami to help bring out the depth of flavours.
