This Amarone contains all the magic that relates the meticulous work and patience of man to this land situated in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica area. Immerse yourself in the freshness of its cherries and marasca cherries with a thousand overtones, and become lost in the power and elegance of its raisining. The richness of its flavour, the mineral content of an old area, rise from the roots and seep into the vines, inviting you to have a sip, and then another, and another.
