Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG Zenato

The Amarone Classico Zenato is a strong and majestic wine. The Corvina, Rondinella and Oselete grapes are carefully selected, harvested and then laid in boxes paying particular attention to the spaces between the bunches in order to facilitate the proper drying process. The withering takes place in the fruttai, special rooms where temperature and humidity are controlled to allow a sufficient drying of the grapes. After about 100-120 days from the harvest, grapes are de-stemmed and the bunches are laid in temperature controlled steel tanks for the alcoholic fermentation. After fermentation and 15-20-day maceration, the Zenato Amarone Classico is left to age in oak barrels for 30 months. After bottling, the wine rests for a year before being released.
