Veneto blend from Tinazzi's experimental Opera series—Corvina-led with structured tannin and Adriatic minerality.
Tinazzi's Opera N°3 represents the winery's exploration of Veneto's classical red varieties beyond the Amarone template. This expression anchors itself in the Verona hills of northeastern Veneto, where calcareous soils and moderate continental influence shape the fruit character.
The blend centers on Corvina—the region's signature variety—supplemented with complementary Veneto grapes. Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel, preserving aromatic definition while building mid-palate structure. Oak aging (specific vessel type and duration not confirmed for this bottling) adds textural weight without overwhelming the wine's mineral spine.
Opera N°3 distinguishes itself as a modern Veneto red that respects traditional variety hierarchy while rejecting the dried-fruit intensity of Amarone—instead favoring fresh-picked acidity and savory tannin. The 2021 vintage (or current release) drinks with immediate accessibility yet carries sufficient structure for 4–6 years of bottle evolution.
Sommelier’s pick: Grilled lamb chops with rosemary—tannin structure frames herb-forward protein · Aged Parmigiano-Reggiano—savory umami aligns with the wine's dried-herb profile · Polenta with wild boar ragù—structured tannin balances rich game reduction
