Monte Faustino di Fornaser Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2020 0,75l

Amarone della Valpolicella Classico from Monte Faustino is crafted from carefully dried grapes of traditional local varieties. In the glass it shows a deep garnet red colour. The nose is intense and persistent, with ripe red fruits, cherry, plum and a touch of almond, wrapped in notes of vanilla, coffee and dark chocolate. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, rich and velvety, yet surprisingly elegant. Firm but ripe tannins and balanced acidity support the generous fruit. The very long finish echoes dried fruit, spice and cocoa. A powerful Amarone to enjoy with game, roasted meats, aged cheeses or simply on its own after dinner.

Maturation in large oak casks and barriques adds warm spice and depth to the concentrated Amarone fruit.

Monte Faustino di Fornaser

High above the Adige valley in Veneto, the terraced slopes of Monte Faustino di Fornaser rise in San Pietro in Cariano—stone walls and vines shaped side by side over generations. The family’s first vineyard still sets the tone: small, steep, and worked by hand where machines don’t belong....

The grape variety: Corvina

Corvina is the leading red grape for many Valpolicella and Bardolino wines. It brings cherry, fresh acidity, herbs, spice and elegant structure.
