Tenuta Sant’Antonio Amarone della Valpolicella Antonio Castagnedi (2018)

Tenuta Sant’Antonio Amarone della Valpolicella Antonio Castagnedi (2018) – Amarone della Valpolicella is the most prestigious red wine of Veneto, and the four brothers who started Tenuta Sant’Antonio dedicate their primary Amarone to their father, Antonio Castagnedi. The best grapes from different vineyards are selected for this wine and are brought to the winery’s drying room to undergo the appassimento process. After at least 3 months of drying, the grapes have shriveled and lost much of their water, while retaining their sugar, flavor, and other components. Once fermented and aged in new barrels, the Amarone is a powerful wine, yet fruity, fresh, and clean.
