Made from predominantly Corvina grapes (same grapes that go into Amarone) but are dried for a shorter period and on the vine not on mats like Amarone. Ruby red color with a delicate and appealing bouquet characterized by intense raspberry and black cherry aromas. In the mouth, the wine is full-bodied, soft and velvety, with hints of spices and chocolate as a result of slow aging in tonneaux. An ideal match with cheese and charcuterie plates or roasted meats.
Nose: Black cherry, black berries, sweet spices, vanilla
Palate: Fig jam, black cherries, chocolate
Amicone is made from a unique blend of selected red grapes cultivated in the Veneto region. Part of these grapes undergoes a particular harvesting process in the vineyards, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Another section of the grapes undergoes a special drying process in wooden crates in rooms at controlled temperatures. The grapes are then pressed and vinified. Once the final blend is created, part of the wine goes through a slow maturation process in tonneaux for 12 months.
