Region: Italy, Veneto

Grape Variety: Corvina

Tasting Notes: This an earthy, decadent Amarone with plenty of menthol, liquorice, tar and ash character. Full-bodied, plush and fruit-forward, but with a solid backbone of chewy tannins. A harmonious red, with a pretty, mineral-laced nose and dusty tannins well-meshed to flavours of mulberry and blackberry fruit, dried herb and tea rose. Offers a subtle, spiced finish.

Food Pairing: This red wine pairs well with game, main dishes featuring red meat, meat-based pasta or rice dishes.
