The Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG "Eleva" from Piovesole is an excellent selection for lovers of robust and intense wines. This wine stands out for its depth and aromatic complexity, features that make it a high-level product in the Valpolicella region of Veneto.
Produced using a traditional grape drying technique, the Amarone "Eleva" achieves a high concentration of natural sugars, acidity, and aromas. The grapes, harvested by hand, are left to dry for several months before fermentation, which takes place at a controlled temperature to preserve the most delicate fragrances. The wine then ages in large oak barrels for at least two years, followed by further refinement in the bottle.
Visually, "Eleva" presents an intense ruby red color, tending towards garnet as it ages. On the nose, it offers a rich bouquet of aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, enriched by hints of sweet spices, chocolate, and a light touch of vanilla, due to the aging in wood.
On the palate, the wine is remarkably full-bodied, with a well-balanced tannic structure that supports a long aromatic persistence. The flavors of ripe fruit mingle with notes of tobacco and leather, creating a complex and satisfying taste experience.
The Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG "Eleva" from Piovesole is ideal to accompany rich and flavorful dishes, such as braised meats, roasts, and aged cheeses, and is perfect as a wine for meditation. Its aging potential makes it an excellent candidate for being stored in a cellar for special occasions. With its distinctive character and superior quality, this Amarone is a valuable choice for any wine collection.
