Cantine di Ora Amicale 2021 vs Jam Shed Malbec Boxed Red Wine 1.5L

Cantine di Ora Amicale 2021

Cantine di Ora Amicale is an expressive red wine from the Veneto , one of Italy's most celebrated wine regions. A blend of Corvina, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, it draws on both indigenous and international varieties to create a wine of real elegance, depth and approachability. Part of the fruit is allowed to overripen on the vine, while another portion is dried in wooden crates under controlled conditions, a nod to the Veneto's great appassimento tradition. Why You'll Love It This is Veneto red winemaking at its most generous and characterful. The use of dried and overripe fruit gives Amicale a richness and velvety texture that sets it apart from everyday Italian reds, while 12 months in tonneaux adds structure and complexity without ever overwhelming the vibrant fruit at its core. Soft, layered and beautifully balanced, it is a wine that works as well with food as it does on its own. Vineyard and Production Grapes are hand-selected from sun-soaked Veneto vineyards and carefully processed to preserve freshness and integrity. Part of the harvest is allowed to overripen on the vine, while another portion is dried in wooden crates to concentrate flavours and enhance body. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, after which the wine is aged for 12 months in tonneaux to integrate flavours and develop smooth, polished tannins. Tasting Notes Ruby red in colour with a delicate, vinous bouquet. Aromas of ripe raspberry and black cherry are complemented by subtle spice and chocolate notes from oak maturation. The palate is full-bodied, soft and velvety, with harmonious fruit intensity and a lingering, elegant finish. Perfect Pairings Pairs beautifully with roasted red meats, game, hearty pasta dishes and a variety of cheeses. Also excellent alongside slow-braised beef, risotto or a classic Italian charcuterie board. Grape Varieties Corvina , Merlot , Cabernet Sauvignon
