Tasting Note

Deep ruby in colour, this wine has aromas of ripe plums, spice and cocoa, which give way to a solid tannin structure that supports the concentrated, dried-cherry fruit character. It is long and silky on the finish, with a bitter cherry-chocolate twist characteristic of good Amarone.

Product Notes

The Cantina Valpantena Torre del Falasco Amarone della Valpolicella is a robust, elegantly structured Italian red wine hailing from the Valpolicella region. It envelopes one's palate with a robust body, offering distinctive notes of dark cherries, blackberries, plums, and spices interwoven with chocolate and tobacco undertones. It proudly showcases a deep ruby colour, beautifully illustrating its age and maturity. This dense, full-bodied wine, ageing for 18 months in oak barrels, reveals its characteristic complexity. Enjoy this well-rounded Amarone with its lengthy finish alongside robust dishes or ripe cheeses. It's simply a stellar representative of traditional Italian vino.
