A special blend for Sartori Amarone della Valpolicella
One of the leading wineries in Veneto is undoubtedly Sartori. This family business was founded in 1898 by Pietro Sartori, with the idea of supplying his hotel with fine wines. His son, Regolo, further developed the winery and achieved significant growth within the wine world. His investments have led to modernization but also to refinement, significantly improving the quality of the wines. They own vineyards in renowned classico zones and vinify classic wines as well as modern, youthful vintages. The blend consists of 50 percent Corvina Veronese, 30 percent Corvinon, 15 percent Rodinella, and 5 percent Cabernet grapes. These grapes are all grown on the hills of the northern part of Verona. The soil, composed of clay and limestone, gives the grapes unique characteristics. The grapes are carefully selected and harvested at optimum ripeness. In the wine cellar, the grapes dry in small plastic crates for about three months. Once they have reached perfect dryness, they are pressed and fermented. Temperature-controlled fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. This is followed by fermentation, which lasts about 30 days and ensures a high alcohol content. The wine is aged for at least three years in large oak barrels, and after bottling, it refines in the bottle for a further six months. But the long wait is worth it.The full character of Sartori Amarone della Valpolicella
