Description
Amarone della Valpolicella DOC La Groletta 2017 Corte Giara
Amarone della Valpolicella DOC La Groletta 2017 Corte Giara is an important red wine signed by Allegrini, capable of interpreting with style and precision one of the great classics of Italian winemaking. Born from Corvina Veronese and Rondinella, it expresses richness, depth, and harmony, combining the typical power of Amarone with an elegant and smooth profile. It is an ideal bottle for those seeking a wine with character, suitable for special occasions and more meditative tasting moments.
Territory and wine style
The production takes place in the Valpolicella, in a hilly area characterized by very diverse soils, predominantly clayey and calcareous, rich in skeleton. This context helps define a structured yet fine wine, with a taste profile that combines warmth, depth, and tension. The manual harvest of selected bunches and the traditional drying of the grapes, followed by fermentation in steel and aging in wood and bottle, lead to an Amarone with a full and well-refined character, offering a contemporary interpretation of the denomination.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red color, almost opaque. On the nose, it offers ripe and still crunchy red fruit, with fleshy nuances, accompanied by spicy notes of pepper and cloves. Then, mineral accents emerge, along with a deeper finish of tobacco, enriching the aromatic profile. On the palate, it is full, enveloping, and velvety, with a solid body well balanced by measured freshness and sweet, perfectly integrated tannins. The finish is long, warm, and harmonious, with a persistence that invites the next sip.
Recommended pairings
This Amarone della Valpolicella DOC pairs consistently well with braised dishes, game, and structured preparations like hare, but it also complements duck à l'orange and aged cheeses. Its richness makes it interesting with complex and flavorful dishes, while those seeking a more classic experience can serve it as a meditation wine, to be enjoyed alone after dinner. It is a wine that enhances important preparations and convivial moments with an elegant tone.
