Description
Veneto, Italy
Nestled in the heart of the Valpolicella region, Corte Adami is a family-run winery dedicated to showcasing the character of its vineyards through traditional methods and meticulous winemaking. Their Amarone della Valpolicella 2020 is crafted from carefully selected Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes, dried for several months using the classic appassimento method to concentrate flavour and complexity before a long period of ageing.
This is a classic Amarone with the depth to cellar for another 10–15 years.
Tasting Notes: The warm, balanced 2020 vintage has produced an Amarone that combines richness with freshness. Layers of ripe black cherry, plum and blackberry are joined by notes of dark chocolate, sweet spice, dried herbs and tobacco. Full-bodied yet remarkably poised, it offers velvety tannins, vibrant acidity and a long, savoury finish that keeps the wine elegant despite its concentration.
Food pairing suggestions: A perfect partner for slow-cooked beef, venison, braised lamb or mature hard cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano.
