Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG Classico Zenato 2018

Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG is a wine that is born in the Zenato cellar of Peschiera del Garda. The major characteristics of the company are the great respect for tradition, combined with the most modern viticulture techniques. The grapes come from the Corvina vines for 80% and for the remaining part from the Rondinella, Oseleta and Croatina. The plants are grown on soils of calcareous origin facing South/East at about 350 meters above sea level. After the manual harvest, the best grapes are selected and left to dry in wooden boxes in the loft for 4 months. The next step is that of crushing followed by alcoholic fermentation with maceration on the skins for 20 days. The refinement takes place in large oak barrels and lasts 3 years, at the end of which it is bottled and put on the market. Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG is an intense and full-bodied wine, which is well suited for immediate drinking, but can evolve in the cellar for over 7 years.
