The Amarone blend is particularly interesting and traditional: 60% Corvina as the backbone of the fruit and structure, 25% Corvinone for aromatic complexity and tannic roundness, and 15% Rondinella for freshness and floral notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe grapes are dried for 90 days in a traditional drying loft, with careful selection ensuring uniform concentration. Fermentation is long and respectful, followed by 30 months of aging in new French oak tonneaux - 500-liter vessels that lie midway between the 225-liter barrique and the large 20-30-hectoliter cask, providing more intense oxygenation than a large cask but less aggressive than a small barrique, along with finer, more elegant tannins that are less aggressive. This is followed by 12 months of bottle aging before release - more than 3.5 years in total from harvest to customer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"standard-markdown grid-cols-1 grid [\u0026amp;_\u0026gt;_*]:min-w-0 gap-3\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eOn the nose, it is elegant and complex: black cherry and sour cherry jam, blackberry, dried plum, cocoa, sweet spices (cinnamon, cloves), tobacco, withered violet, and a balsamic, mineral undertone that evokes the hills around Verona. On the palate, it is structured and enveloping - 16.5° of natural power, well integrated by glyceric sweetness, with tannins that are present yet already softened by long aging in tonneaux, vibrant acidity that ensures verticality and longevity, and a long, persistent finish with notes of black fruit, spices, and cocoa. Serve at 18-20°C after decanting for at least one hour. It shows at its best between 5 and 15 years after the harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Emporio Divino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58268054749558,"sku":null,"price":41.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/2717\/0166\/files\/Nuovoprogetto_79_1_48.jpg?v=1790073629","url":"https:\/\/emporiodivino.com\/en\/products\/amarone-della-valpolicella-lavagnoli","provider":"Emporio diVino","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
