If you are going to fall in love…
To fall in love with anything is to fall in love with first, Italy and then, Amarone!
For those of you new to Italian wine, Amarone is a distinguished Red wine from the Valpolicella region in Veneto, Italy. For wine learners: Fun fact! The Tinazzi Aureum Acinum Amarone della Valpolicella grapes are from selected vineyards approx. 300 metres above sea level.
Does that matter much? Maybe so. This wine is made using the traditional Amarone method, where grapes (commonly Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara) are partially dried to concentrate their flavours and sugar content before fermentation. This process leads to a richer, more robust wine with a higher alcohol content.
Amarone Della Valpolicella is known for its deep, complex flavours which often include notes of ripe fruit, cherry, dried figs, and spices, and sometimes hints of chocolate or tobacco.
The Tinazzi Amarone IS exactly that, with hints of mature red cherries and spicy hints that leads to the grand finale of chocolate and licorice.
This wine pairs well with hearty dishes like red meats, game, and strong cheeses, making it a fantastic choice for dinners and gatherings where rich flavours are celebrated and explored.
Make sure you uncork this well in advance to truly be captivated into the amazing world of Amarone!
