Famiglia Pasqua
Amarone della Valpolicella Corvina Blend
Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, Italy
This wine is medium dark garnet with some brown starting to show. The nose brings enough savory for everybody. Currant, fig, and blackberry notes are draped in earthy scents like pepper, tobacco, oak spice, coffee, and tarragon. The palate holds a set of firm tannins and a racy acidity. Flavors of dark berries, cherry, and plum define the wine’s profile. It will pair well with pork, lamb, or veal.

Blend of Corvina 65%, Rondinella 25%, Corvinone 5% & Negrara 5% with 90 days of appassimento, then aged in oak for about 20 months. Dark red with aromas of black and red fruits with sweet spice, for this warm 2015 vintage. On the palate sweet cherry, blackberry and dried currant flavors, with cacao and tobacco notes and baking spices. Soft smooth tannins well balanced with acidity on a long finish ending with slight earthy tones. Nice! Great sipping wine! Good with food!

The 2015 Amarone della Valpolicella balances savory and sweet to create a beautiful display of contrasts. Black cherries, sage, dried citrus, hints of vanilla and animal musk create a beguiling display. The textures are creamy and enveloping, offset by mineral-laden blue and black berries, followed by a note of bitter herbs and mocha. For all its power, the 2015 maintains a fresh and lifted feel, finishing long with a coating of round tannins and hints of spice.(Eric Guido, Vinous, February 2021)
