Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Sergio Zenato is a highly prestigious Italian red wine, produced in the Veneto region and, more precisely, in the classic Valpolicella area. This label represents the pinnacle of the Zenato winery's oenological expression, the result of a rigorous selection of grapes and a complex and traditional winemaking process. Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Sergio Zenato is produced mainly with Corvina, Rondinella and, to a lesser extent, Oseleta and Croatina grapes. These grapes, grown in the oldest vineyards in the classic Valpolicella area, are subjected to the appassimento process, a natural drying on racks that concentrates the sugars and aromas. The winemaking takes place in the traditional way, with prolonged maceration on the skins and alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature. Subsequently, the wine ages in large wooden barrels for several years, during which it acquires complexity and harmony.

Intense ruby ​​red color, with garnet reflections that intensify with aging, denoting a solid and concentrated structure. On the nose it is complex and enveloping, with an aromatic bouquet that ranges from ripe red fruits (black cherry, cherry) to notes of jam, sweet spices (cinnamon, vanilla), tobacco, licorice and hints of undergrowth. The aging in wood gives elegant toasted and vanilla notes. On the palate it is broad, full-bodied and persistent, with silky and well-integrated tannins. The balance between sweetness, acidity and tannicity is perfect, creating a wine of great structure and complexity. On the palate the same olfactory sensations are found, with a long and persistent finish, characterized by notes of dried fruit and dark chocolate. Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Sergio Zenato is a meditation wine, perfect to accompany important and complex dishes. It pairs well with roasted red meats, game, mature cheeses and dark chocolate. It is advisable to serve it at a temperature of 18-20°C, in large glasses that enhance its aromas.
