Nicolis
Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG Classico
Variety
Corvina 65% – Rondinella 20% – Molinara 5% Croatina 10%.
Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby red which gradually turns into garnet. On the nose it is complex, harmonious, and elegant, with notes of dried fruit, jam, underbrush, walnut husk, and leather.
The taste is balanced, rich, delicate, austere and long-lasting.
Food Pairing
It goes well with game, roast meat, and hearty, flavourful aged cheese. Extraordinary “meditation wine”. The bottle should be opened at least one hour before serving. It should be served in large balloon glasses that favor good oxygenation.
