Tasting Notes

Indisputably the most powerful wine of the Veneto region - if not all of Italy. What distinguishes Amarone from other red wines is the fact that the grapes are dried over the winter prior to pressing. As you would expect, the drying process concentrates the flavours even further. A delicious, mouth-filling wine with a list of flavours that go on and on. Stunning. Alteo is a full-bodied, elegant wine with a warm, inviting bouquet of dried fruit, black pepper, coffee, liquorice and vanilla. On the palate it is soft, velvety, and substantial. The elegance, slight sweetness and volume are the surprising features of this wine. The finish is long with an aftertaste of liquorice.
