L'Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Superiore DOC di Quintarelli è un capolavoro enologico che esprime al meglio la tradizione e il savoir-faire della celebre cantina veronese. Questo vino straordinario è ottenuto da uve selezionate, lasciate appassire per mesi al fine di concentrare gli aromi e i sapori. Il risultato è un Amarone di grande complessità e struttura.

Il colore è un intenso rosso rubino con riflessi granati. Al naso si delineano profumi complessi e avvolgenti, con note di frutta matura, come ciliegia nera e prugna, seguite da sentori di spezie dolci, tabacco, cacao e sfumature di erbe aromatiche e cuoio. In bocca, l'Amarone di Quintarelli si distingue per la sua ricchezza e pienezza. La struttura robusta è ben bilanciata da una sorprendente freschezza e da tannini eleganti e vellutati.

Il lungo affinamento in botti di rovere conferisce a questo vino una profondità e una sofisticazione straordinarie, rendendolo perfetto per accompagnare piatti complessi e saporiti, come i brasati, la selvaggina e i formaggi stagionati. Ottimo anche come vino da meditazione, questo Amarone è un'esplosione di sapori che rapisce i sensi, un must per gli appassionati e i collezionisti.

Winery history
The winery began as a family enterprise tied to Valpolicella Classica.

Production has remained family-run over the years, and Bepi’s work is widely cited as the cornerstone of the winery’s reputation.
Production philosophy
Traditional method based on manual grape selection, the appassimento used for styles such as Amarone and Recioto, and a cautious quality policy that, in some cases, leads to downgrading wines when they are not deemed worthy of the top label. Strong focus on tradition and on the territorial character of the wines.
Terroir and vineyards
The winery is rooted in the classic Valpolicella zone, in the Negrar/Verona area, an area known for its indigenous grape varieties and for the appassimento techniques employed in typical local productions.
