Quintarelli, Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2017, Magnum 1500 ml

Quintarelli Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2017 is an iconic red wine obtained in the historic Venetian winery, heir to a family tradition that for decades has embodied the excellence of drying. On visual examination, it has an intense, deep and luminous ruby hue. The nose reveals itself with a rich and complex bouquet that combines hints of ripe cherry, berries, dried flowers, spiced orange, tobacco, incense and delicate balsamic nuances. In the mouth, the wine is distinguished by a refined, velvety and semi-dry palate, with refined tannins, ample structure and a long good acidity that balances the aromatic richness. The 2017 vintage, characterized by a hot and dry summer, gave the wine an uncommon concentration and power, making it particularly suitable for aging. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts and prolonged aging in Slovenian oak barrels contribute to a unique complexity, with hints of dark chocolate, dried fruit and spices that evolve in the finish of good persistence. A wine of great harmony, an expression of the classic territory of Valpolicella and the artisan philosophy of the Quintarelli family.
