Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva is a premium Italian red wine produced by Sergio Zenato, a renowned winemaker from the Veneto region in northern Italy. Amarone della Valpolicella is made using a unique winemaking method called appassimento, where the grapes are dried before fermentation, resulting in a rich, full-bodied wine with a unique flavor profile.

The Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva is made from a blend of native grape varieties, including Corvina, Rondinella, and Oseleta. These grapes are carefully selected and hand-harvested, ensuring only the best quality fruit is used for this special wine.

The wine is then aged in a combination of French oak barrels and Slovenian oak casks for an extended period, allowing for the development of complex flavors and aromas. With a dark ruby color and hedonistic aromas of ripe berries, dried fruits, and spices, this Riserva offers an opulent and seductive bouquet.

On the palate, Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva provides a velvety texture, with layers of flavors showcasing dark cherries, black currants, plums, and hints of vanilla, cocoa, and tobacco. The wine has a well-rounded structure, with balanced acidity and smooth tannins, leading to a long and lingering finish.

This Riserva is best enjoyed after a few years of aging to allow the wine to fully express its potential. It pairs well with rich and flavorful dishes such as grilled meats, aged cheeses, or hearty pasta dishes. The Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva is a truly remarkable wine that exemplifies the artistry and craftsmanship of Sergio Zenato and is sure to delight even the most discerning wine connoisseur.
