Why You'll Love It
This is authentic Amarone della Valpolicella from Collis-Riondo, one of the largest producers in Veneto and Italy, working with around 2,400 growers across 6,500 hectares. The traditional appassimento method sees grapes hand-harvested in mid-September and dried on racks until January, concentrating sugars and flavours.
