Agr. (Sirmione - Brescia, Lombardy, Italy) Grapes: Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Croatina traditionally dried Alcohol content: 16% vol. Organoleptic sheet per senses Visual examination: Deep, intense ruby red, with garnet reflections of great brilliance. Olfactory examination: Explosive, complex and elegant. Opens with pronounced notes of cherry jam, prunes, preserved morello cherry and dried plum, followed by refined hints of dark chocolate, cocoa, roasted coffee, tobacco and sweet spices. Taste examination: On the palate it is powerful, warm and balsamic. The structure is imposing but supported by velvety tannins and by extraordinary mineral freshness that balances the alcohol, giving an endless finish. Food pairings Great dishes of game and wild game (wild boar, roe deer) Braised and Amarone-style stews, beef stews Extra-aged cheeses (e.g., Parmigiano Reggiano over 36 months) and complex blue cheeses (spicy Gorgonzola) Also perfect as a “meditation wine” at the end of a meal Service Used glass: Wide, capacious balloon-type glass for grand red wines. Serving temperature: 18 – 20 °C (it is recommended to uncork at least 1-2 hours before serving). Curiosities about the winery and producer An Homage to the Origins: This wine represents the homage that the sons Igino, Gian Franco and Anna Maria wanted to dedicate to their father Pietro Dal Cero, founder of the modern winery and originally from Valpolicella (Luxinum/Tregnago), before the family moved to Sirmione on Lake Garda. Prolonged maturation: Produced only in the best vintages from vineyards located in the municipality of Tregnago, the Pietro Dal Cero Amarone follows a long drying process of the grapes of over 4 months, followed by 24 months of aging in wooden casks and a subsequent long bottle rest.
