AMARONE della Valpolicella Classico D.o.c.g. 'MARNE 180' 2016 is one of the winemaking gems from the renowned Valpolicella wine region, in the heart of the province of Verona, Italy. This wine is an extraordinary example of the art of appassimento, a process of drying grapes that gives the wine unique depth, complexity and character.
To the eye, 'MARNE 180' presents itself with an intense and deep ruby red color, with garnet reflections. This rich hue is the first indication of the concentration and power of this Amarone. On the nose, the wine offers an enveloping and complex bouquet. Hints of ripe red fruit, such as cherries and plums, emerge, accompanied by notes of dried fruit, such as raisins and cherries in alcohol. Sweet spices, such as vanilla and cocoa, are also perceived, along with a subtle nuance of tobacco and leather.
In the mouth, AMARONE 'MARNE 180' impresses with its imposing structure and full body. The red and black fruit flavours are intense and enveloping, with a well-balanced sweetness and surprising complexity. The persistence of flavours is remarkable, with notes of dark chocolate, tobacco and spices that gradually emerge as the wine evolves in the glass. The well-balanced acidity and soft tannins contribute to creating a sensation of harmony and roundness in the mouth.
This Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is packaged in an elegant case, which also makes it an extraordinary gift for wine lovers or for special occasions.
