The 2022 delivers a generous, polished expression of this classic “baby Amarone” style, opening with inviting aromas of ripe cherries, red berry compote and plum, layered with hints of baking spice, light leather and a touch of cocoa. On the palate, it is medium-bodied yet richly textured, showing sweet red fruits and subtle oak spice, supported by chewy, well-rounded tannins and a warm, elegant core. The signature ripasso technique — where the wine is re-fermented on Amarone skins — adds depth, structure and a lingering, savoury finish, giving the wine both approachability and complexity .A highly versatile pairing wine — ideal with grilled meats, braised beef, roast pork, hearty pasta (ragù, lasagne) and aged cheeses. It also works beautifully with chargrilled dishes and mushroom-based plates, where its richness and spice complement savoury depth.
