Corte Maggio Amarone Della Valpolicella 750 ml

Corte Maggio Amarone Della Valpolicella is a rich, powerful red wine from Italy's Valpolicella region, crafted through the appassimento method, where grapes are dried before fermentation to concentrate flavors. This process brings out the wine's signature dark fruit intensity and complexity.

Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: Deep ruby with garnet highlights
• Aroma: Aromas of dried cherries, figs, and plums, layered with earthy notes, hints of chocolate, cinnamon, and a touch of tobacco.
• Palate: Full-bodied and velvety, this wine delivers flavors of blackberries, dried cherries, and dates. Secondary flavors include notes of cocoa, licorice, and spice, with a balanced acidity and smooth tannins that enhance its opulent structure. The finish is long, with lingering notes of dark fruit and a hint of warm spice.

Food Pairing:

Corte Maggio Amarone pairs beautifully with rich, savory dishes:

• Meat Dishes: Braised short ribs, osso buco, or roasted lamb.
• Cheese: Aged Parmesan, blue cheeses, or Pecorino.
• Game Meats: Venison or wild boar in rich sauces.
• Vegetarian: Mushroom risotto, truffle-infused dishes, or roasted root vegetables with balsamic reduction.

Its bold flavors also make it a wonderful accompaniment to dark chocolate desserts for a unique, indulgent pairing.
