WINE DESCRIPTION
Zenato Amarone is a blend of Corvina and Rondinella, with a touch of Croatina and Oseleta. Corvina is prized not only for its intense marasca cherry flavor, but also its ability to withstand the drying process. Used in small quantities Rondinella also fares well in drying, and contributes dark color and an alluring floral note. Oseleta provides tannic structure and minerality; while Croatina is introduced to add youthful fruitiness. All this attention to detail pays off in a wine that is immediately approachable yet unmistakably ageworthy.
TASTING NOTES
Ruby red in color, intoxicating aromas of dried black cherries, cassis, truffles, and chocolate fudge leap out of the glass. The resulting wine is silky, luscious, and complex, with a lingering finish.
FOOD PAIRING
Pair this wine with osso bucco, Bordelaise sauces, wild boar ravioli, or grilled cowboy ribeyes.
CRITIC ACCLAIM
WS 93 | Wine Spectator 93 points
"A suave red, with its lush texture carrying finely knit flavors of plumped cherry and baked raspberry. Offers accents of loamy earth, singed orange peel, medicinal herbs and rose hip. Long and fluid, with good tension through the well-spiced, lasting finish."
JS 95 | James Suckling 95 points
“Very complex nose of bay leaves, dried prunes and blackberry jam, enhanced with leather and a bit of restrained chocolate. Velvety tannins flow on the palate, with a full body, zesty and cleansing acidity and a savory finish of toasted black pepper and chocolate.”
