The 2010 Amarone delle Valpolicella Classico impresses for its harmony, staying power and elegance. Wines made from air-dried grapes like Amarone can sometimes feel overdone and overtly jammy. But this wine, made from a balanced vintage, allows the quality of fruit to rise above all the rest. The bouquet opens to dark fruit, prune, resin, cola and tar. A pretty note of oregano or rosemary gives the an Italian or Mediterranean personality.
Producer
Zenato Azienda Vitivinicola
With strong ties to local culture and territorial history, the Zenato Winery sits perched along Lake Garda, in Peschiera del Garda. Founded in 1960 by a self-proclaimed wine enthusiast and lover of the land, Sergio Zenato and his wife, Carla, they set out to value their frank and simple approach to life – producing exceptional quality wines at an affordable price. Today, their children, Alberto and Nadia, manage the estate with the same shared enthusiasm and quest for excellence as their parents. The ancient morainic lands of Lugana and Valpolicella are covered by 75 hectares of vineyards. The Zenato estate of San Christina in San Benedetto di Lugana – is ideal for Trebbiano di Lugana production. While the Zenato’s other estate, Costalunga in Valpolicella is known for their famous Amarone, Corvina, Rondinella and Oselata wines.
