Amarone Case Vecie borrows its name from the homonymous 10ha-vineyard located in Grezzana - Valpantena. It is a unique vineyard, 450mt above sea level, with a perfect south/easterly exposition. These particular pedoclimatic conditions allow the grapes to undergo a slow and constant ripening even during the hardest years. The grapes are selected in the vineyard and placed in crates. They are then left to dry in the fruit drying loft for several months. The wine is left in contact with the grape skins during fermentation.Aging is in barriques for: 2 years in 25hL slavonian oak barrels. (2013 is yet to be rated. 2012s were rated 94).
Tasting Notes & Reviews
"Deep ruby. Very ripe, almost roasted nose of dried cranberry, kirsch, brown spices, figs macerated in sugar syrup and botanical herbs. Then fresher and suave, with clean and precise flavous of cinnamon, pepper, tobacco and pot pourri. Finishes long with young, chewy but polished tannins." (From the winery)
