About this product

Cantina di Negrar Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is a powerful, richly textured and deeply expressive red wine crafted using the traditional appassimento method. Grapes from hillside vineyards in the heart of the Classico zone are hand-picked and then slowly dried in fruttaio lofts, concentrating their sugars, aromas and structure.

This patient, traditional approach results in a full-bodied, harmonious
