round

A blend of Corvina Veronese, Corvinone, and Rondinella sourced from various vineyards throughout the Valpolicella Classica region, following the traditional Amarone drying and ageing process.

A cold autumn and mild winter lead to a chilly spring with favourable winds. June brings hail and rain, while summer features moderate heat and temperature swings, with thunderstorms easing the July heat.

Standing out for its aromatic profile, Amarone Cesari showcases an intense ruby-red colour with garnet hues, complemented by aromas of ripe fruit, cherry, and jam. It is elegant, warm, and full-bodied, with a long and surprising finish.

Andamento climatico

A cold autumn with several snowfalls is followed by a mild and dry winter. The good humidity level prepares the vines for a chilly spring, marked by favourable winter winds and temperatures near freezing in March. Early June brings hailstorms, followed by rain and cool temperatures. Summer features moderate heat and significant temperature variation; thunderstorms temper the scorching temperatures of July into early August.

Vinificazione e maturazione

Selected grapes are left to dry until December inside small crates in spacious, well-ventilated drying rooms ('Fruttaio'). Here, grapes lose 30% of their weight and increase their sugar concentration, a crucial step for the subsequent fermentation. This occurs after a cold maceration of 8 days at 6°C (43°F). The total ageing period lasts 3 years, with 12 months spent in oak barrels and 6-8 months in the bottle.

Note degustative

The 2020 vintage has gifted this Amarone with an outstanding aromatic profile. In appearance, it shows an intense ruby-red colour with garnet hues. On the nose, it boasts typical aromas of ripe fruit, cherry, and jam emerge. On the palate, it is elegant, warm, and full-bodied, with a long and surprising finish.
