2021 Cantina Di Negrar Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico DOCG
Regular price £16.99From the winery responsible for the invention of Amarone!
Tasting Notes
Nose
This has a highly perfumed nose - intense and persistent, ethereal, fruity with hints of cherries and dried prunes, dried flowers, sweetly spiced. This is full bodied with a deliciously smooth mouth-feel and velvety tannins.
History
Consisting of 230 growers and 700 hectares, Cantina Valpolicella Negrar is a co operative located just a few kilometres from Verona, in the heart of Valpolicella. They are one of the major producers in Valpolicella Classico owning a quarter of all Classico Vineyards, and are the only winery to have vineyards in all 5 communes of the region. They have a long and distinctive history of winemaking going back to 1933 and were the first to produce Amarone in 1939, a%er a serendipitous mistake producing Recioto.
Production
Located in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica zone on dry terraces in the hills from Negrar at an altitude between 150 and 350 metres above sea level. The vineyards are southeast facing and made up of varied soil types: silt-clay, partly calcareous and partly on Eocene marls. Viness are trined using the Pergoletta System with grass sward between vines.

Malolactic fermentation completed in cask followed by 18 months aging in 50 hl barrels, followed by a further 6 months in bottle.

Personal Tasting Notes
"Lovely - full bodied and rich with an alluring blend of juicy red and black fruits, a touch of spice and a super smooth finish. Extremely well made and well balanced. A great £15’s worth. Not cloying or offering overly ripe, sweet fruit - very fresh and clean on the palate meaning each glass is a fresh mouthfeel." Tasted April 2024
