About Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella

In Italy, tradition dictates that a bottle of Amarone della Valpolicella is a must at any good wedding. In theory, and according to tradition, this present is the best way to wish the bride and groom good luck because if the new union lasts and comes to fruition (fingers crossed) the new spouses should open this bottle on their 20th anniversary and toast to success. And if the bottle uncorked is Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella, all the better.

Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella is one of the most representative Italian wines. Specifically, this red wine, protected by D.O.C. Amarone della Valpolicella and from the D.O.C. Valpolicella Classico, is made from raisined grapes in the Vantorosso cellars. This facility, located in the municipality of Fumane (in Veneto, in the northwest of the country), is the project of Vanni Pasquali (racing driver) and Franco Allegrini (owner of Allegrini Estates).

The grapes for Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella are grown in vineyards which extend over the Fumane valley, at an altitude of 350-400 meters above sea level, arranged in south-eastern facing terraces. The cool breeze from the north and the warm winds of Lake Garda influence this area’s climate, where varieties such as Corvina Veronese, Corvinone and Rondinella are cultivated. The vines, pruned in simple guyot, grow on very varied soils, mostly clayey, calcareous and rich in skeletons (stones and rocks).

The grapes are harvested by hand during the last ten days of September. After harvesting, the grapes are dried naturally for 100 to 120 days. As occurs with Pedro Ximenez, this dehydration causes the amount of sugar to increase before Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella is fermented. After destemming and pressing at high pressures, the must is placed in stainless steel tanks where it ferments at a controlled temperature for about 25 days. Finally, Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella will be aged for 18 months in oak barrels and another 14 months in the bottle.

Whether alone or accompanied; married, single or divorced… Any marital status is good for opening a bottle of Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella.

2017

Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella 2017 unveils a spectrum of aromas with prominent ripe cherries and a hint of blue flowers, interwoven with nuances of tobacco and pepper. On the palate, its full-bodied nature is evident through a sumptuous texture and flavors reminiscent of candied fruits. Balsamic notes add layers of complexity to this concentrated red wine, offering a sweetness that entices without cloying. Its understated maturity is discernible in every sip, promising an unforgettable tasting experience.
2016

Vantorosso Amarone della Valpolicella 2016 is a concentrated red wine. The nose is initially strong, becoming softer and revealing aromas of cherry jam and flowers, and balsamic and tobacco notes from the barrel. On the palate it’s very pleasant and enveloping, warm and juicy, with the astringency of the tannins and a touch of bitterness.
