Amarone Riserva is our masterpiece.
This Amarone shows an intense, almost impenetrable red colour, as well as an infinitive richness in the initial aroma, followed by an incredible smoothness that is long and persistent. The result of a long process of aging that includes seven years in tonneaux or barrique and at least two years in the bottle. Ideal to accompany game, spit-roasted meat, roasts and mature cheese. It is recommended that you open the bottle at least one hour before drinking and serve at a temperature of 18°C.

Production technique
The grapes are selected from the company's historical vines and harvested in the first twenty days of September. The finest and healthiest bunches are placed in trays, taking the utmost care not to damage the grapes. They are then moved to dedicated dry and well-ventilated fruit stores where they are left to wither until winter, losing up to 45% of their weight.
Wine-making process
De-stalking and gentle pressing. Maceration lasting approx. 40 days during which time, manual punching down and pumping over is carried out. Fermentation temperature: 20°C. After being drawn off, the wine is transferred into barriques where it is left to mature and age for seven years, after which it undergoes further aging in the bottle (two or three years).
