Understanding Bertani, Amarone della Valpolicella, Classico, Veneto
Bertani's Amarone is crafted using Corvina and Rondinella grapes. This blend undergoes the classic Amarone production method called appassimento, where grapes are air-dried before fermentation, concentrating flavors and sugars. Post-fermentation, the wine is aged in large Slavonian oak barrels, promoting a round, integrated taste. This process creates a deeply layered, luxurious wine that speaks volumes about the terroir and tradition of Valpolicella.
