2016 Maternigo Amarone delle Valpolicella Riserva GP

The Amarone Riserva Maternigo is made from grapes harvested from the Barila vineyard on the Maternigo estate. The soil of this vineyard has undergone careful grading and characterization and is characterized by its very low vitality, which in turn produces grapes with a particularly rich structure. The calcium content contributes to the wine's enhanced aromaticity. This Amarone encompasses our world made up of culture and tradition, a family passion that combines the patience required to accept the meticulous timing of our craft and our commitment to research and innovation. The final product is an Amarone Riserva, available only in selected vintages, of great character, particularly fruity, complex and elegant at the same time, all reminiscent of the unmistakable Tedeschi brand.
