Magnum of Amarone in Wooden Box, Zýmē
奖品
Magnum of Amarone Classico Della Valpolicella, 2004.
The incomplete name “Am” conveys this still-incomplete “work.” The shape of the letter A suggests a vat, symbol of winemaking, but also a hair-clip, signifying a feminine wine.
This Amarone contains the following grape variety: 40% Corvina, 30% Corvinone, 15% Rondinella, 10% Oseleta, 5% Croatina.
After pressing in January, the grapes are held in steel tanks and in concrete vats, without added yeasts or other biotechnical agents, until the fermentation begins, with very few pumpovers or punchdowns performed. After maceration on the pomace for over 2 months, the wine matures in large Slavonian oak ovals for a minimum of 5 years. From this moment on, regular topping-up is the only operation performed: time very gradually shapes the wineʼs characteristics. It receives one yearsʼ bottle-ageing. Amarone is produced only in the finest growing years.
Intense ruby red in appearance, glycerine-rich, tending towards garnet with ageing.
Enters the palate with appealing savouriness, mirroring the fragrances on the nose and adding fruit preserves; with ageing, the palate lengthens, offering delicate impressions of pepper, black liquorice and cocoa powder.
Ideal food pairing roasts and boiled meats, aged cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano or Grana Padano. Enjoyed on its own or at the end of a meal.
