Recchia Masua di Jago Amarone della Valpolicella. Amarone della Valpolicella stands as a pinnacle of Italian winemaking, renowned for its richness and dryness, hailing from the picturesque Veneto region. Crafted primarily from the esteemed Corvina grape, Amarone captivates the senses with its ripe and bold flavours, making it a favourite among wine enthusiasts worldwide.
Harvested meticulously by hand in September, the grapes undergo a meticulous drying process until they have shed 35-40% of their original weight. This technique concentrates the sugars and flavours within the grapes, resulting in a wine of exceptional depth and complexity. Following this, Amarone undergoes a meticulous aging process, spending four months in stainless steel tanks to preserve its freshness before maturing for an additional 24 months in French oak barrels. This careful aging process imparts layers of richness and nuance to the wine, enhancing its character and structure.
After the aging process is complete, Amarone is further refined through four months of bottle aging before it is ready for release. This final stage allows the wine to harmonise and develop its full potential, ensuring that each bottle reaches its peak of perfection upon reaching the consumer's glass.
Amarone della Valpolicella is not just a wine; it is an experience of Italian craftsmanship and tradition. With its rich flavours, meticulous production process, and exquisite aging, Amarone stands as a testament to the artistry and dedication of the winemakers of the Veneto region.
