Description

The Allegrini is one of the flagship producers of Amarone. The wine is made by picking the best grapes harvested in the upper hillsides that are then left to dry in the drying facility for about 4 months. After a soft pressing, the wine ferments in steel tanks and ages in new barriques for 18 months, in large barrels for 7 months and in the bottle for about 14 months.

Corvina Veronese 45%

Veneto

Veneto, in northeastern Italy, is praised for its diverse wine styles. The region produces excellent Prosecco, a sparkling wine made from the Glera grape, and Amarone della Valpolicella, a robust red wine made from dried grapes. Veneto also excels in producing Soave, a crisp white wine. The wines from this region are characterized by their balance, vibrant acidity, and distinctive regional character. Prosecco is known for its light, fruity flavors and refreshing bubbles, while Amarone offers rich, concentrated flavors of dried fruit and spice. Soave wines are celebrated for their crisp acidity and flavors of citrus and green apple.
