Amarone Della Valpolicella Fattori

Produced in tiny quantities this is hedonistic and complex with a nose of cherry liqueur and cinnamon with flavours of green peppercorn, chocolate and dried plum. Very, very long finish.

Grape varieties: 65% Corvina, 15% Corvinone 10% Rondinella 10% other varieties

The grapes are allowed to dry gently in well-ventilated rooms for around 4-5 months, concentrating their flavours, sweetness and colour. In winter, the grapes are crushed, fermentation starts with natural yeast and then the must is filled into 500-1000l oak barrels to finish fermenting. The wine matures in wood for 30-36 months before bottling.
