Tasting note

A medium-structuredwine with delicate spicy notes of vanilla and chocolate,together with typical overtones of cherry, sour cherry and white pepper. The palate stands out for its easy drinkability, typical of Valpolicella, as well as the silky tannic structure and intense aromatic length. The finish is fresh, soft and sapid.This wine features a classic, elegant, balanced and well-orchestrated style.

Vineyard

Grown in the DOC Valpolicella Classica area on the Tenuta Novare Estate in Arbizzano di Negrar.

Viticulture

The vines are trained in the double Guyot system on marl-limestone soil with clay deposits.

Vinification

This wine is made with second fermentation, called “ripasso”. In March, the fresh, young vintage Valpolicella wine referments on the still slightly sweet Amarone Classico skins. Matured in 75-hectolitre French oak barrels for 12 months, plus a further year in 100-hectolitre concrete vats.

Food Match

A firmly structured wine ideal with medium-mature cheese, grilled meat, roasts and game.
