Amphora Rosso Riserva - Annate 15/16/17 - Cirelli

Amphora Rosso Riserva di Cirelli, a blend of the 2015, 2016 and 2017 vintages, presents a concentrated structure yet tempered by a pleasing composure. In the glass it shows a deep color and on the nose offers a combination of ripe red fruits, earthy notes and a slight spicy accent; the aromatic-mineral element, emphasized by the reference to the amphora on the label, brings clarity and precision to the profile. The palate is dense but not heavy: well-defined tannins interact with an acidic tension that keeps the wine lively and flowing, while its sapidity lengthens the finish, making it persistent without weighing it down.

On the palate a solid structure emerges that does not sacrifice elegance, ideal for those seeking a red with character and a balance between power and finesse. It benefits from being opened in advance or decanted to highlight its layers; it pairs effortlessly with flavorful dishes such as roasts, braises and aged cheeses, but also stands up to more complex pairings thanks to its depth. A wine that invites a measured and attentive tasting.
