Villa Girardi Amarone delta Valplicella Classico

Villa Girardi's Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2019 is a full-bodied expression of Veneto's most prestigious dried-grape tradition. The blend of Corvina Veronese, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Molinara undergoes appassimento—partial drying before fermentation—yielding concentrated dark cherry and plum on the nose, with supporting oak and spice from winemaking. The palate is rich and structured, with medium-high tannins and emerging tertiary notes of leather, tobacco, and earth that suggest graceful aging potential. A food-friendly classic suited to grilled meats, braised dishes, and aged cheeses.
