The Monte Olmi Amarone from the Tedeschi estate is a cru named after the vineyard of the same name in Pedemonte di Valpolicella, in the heart of the Valpolicella Classico region. Few wines can match this powerhouse, for it is both full-bodied and creamy!\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e An Italian powerhouse from Tedeschi\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n He is the standard-bearer of the Tedeschi family. The Capitel Monte Olmi Amarone is a cru, the grapes coming from the vineyard of the same name, a mere 2.5 hectares, facing southwest. It is the only terraced vineyard: the steep slope allows water to drain away when there is too much rain, while the depth and structure of the soil, which consists primarily of clay marl, retain water when it becomes too dry. This ensures that the vines, which are on average twenty years old, always receive optimal supplies.\n\n\n \nFor this Italian powerhouse, 30 percent of the Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella grapes, along with a total of 10 percent of other local red grapes such as Oseleta, Negrara, Croatina, Forselina, and Dindarella, are processed together. After harvest, they undergo the appassimento process, a four-month drying process in a special drying room with constant humidity control. This process allows the grapes to dry naturally, enhancing the wine's color, aroma, and flavor. This process is followed by a gentle pressing and subsequent alcoholic fermentation and maceration at controlled cool temperatures for forty to sixty days. The Amarone is then aged for four years in Slavonian oak barrels and, after bottling, is aged in the bottle for a further six months.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e What does the Tedeschi Monte Olmi Amarone taste like?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe multi-award-winning Monte Olmi radiates ruby ​​red, clear, and transparent in the glass. The broad aroma revealed numerous hints of raisins, figs, and plums, as well as spices, black fruit, and a touch of pepper. A wine that can definitely age for another 5 to 10 years, but is already perfect for drinking now. Drinking it is a true celebration; for a moment, our world stands still. The palate is beautifully balanced with notes of black fruit, figs, black plums, cinnamon, vanilla, tobacco, cedar, and much more! Sit back, relax, and enjoy this Monte Olmi Amarone from Tedeschi—a true celebration in itself!","brand":"Vinites","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775873716303,"sku":"6859","price":80.35,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/monte-olmi-amarone-tedeschi_6859.webp?v=1770110140"},{"product_id":"neropasso-biscardo-magnum-in-doos","title":"Neropasso Biscardo MAGNUM in Box","description":"Are you familiar with Neropasso Biscardo and looking for a great gift?

Ca'Rugate produces wines with respect for nature, embracing traditions and preserving Italy's historic methods. The vineyards are situated on highly volcanic black soils, which contribute significantly to the quality of the wines. And yes, you can smell or taste a whiff of sulfur in every wine. But this red Rio Albo Valpolicella is truly special, recently receiving 91 points from James Suckling, which is quite something for a wine around twelve euros.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The old Valpolicella vineyard of Ca'Rugate\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe old, thick trunks in the Valpolicella region are filled with Corvina, Corvione, and Rondinella grapes. These ancient varietals nourish the red wine, giving it its roundness and finesse. The vineyard is perfectly situated in the hilly Montecchia di Crosara region. The soil consists of limestone and granite, giving the vines deep roots. This allows them to withstand the warm Valpolicella climate. Once the harvest is ripe, it is harvested entirely by hand, with only the finest bunches making it into the bottle. And we can certainly taste it: a perfectly pure red wine with a contemporary character.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The smell and taste of the Rio Albo Valpolicella\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nAfter several months of aging in the Ca'Rugate cellars, it's ready to be enjoyed.

All our senses are stimulated, and we encounter a variety of impressions. We think of fresh cherries and blackberries, complemented by a swarm of blueberries. The palate is velvety with nuances of black fruit, light tannins, jam, and fresh strawberries.","brand":"Poot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775787405391,"sku":"9716","price":13.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/ca-rugate-rio-albo-valpolicella_9716.webp?v=1770120249"},{"product_id":"ca-rugate-valpolicella-ripasso","title":"Ca Rugate Valpolicella Ripasso","description":"This is the so-called baby Amarone from Ca'Rugate, a gem of a wine with immense depth, we can tell you.

This location allows the grapes to benefit from early sunshine and a good temperature variation between day and night. The microclimate plays a key role in ripening, perfectly expressing aromas of ripe fruit and floral notes. The grapes were harvested by hand in the second half of September, with careful selection carried out directly in the vineyard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-end=\"1132\" data-start=\"1107\" data-section-id=\"1nispz6\"\u003e Vinification and maturation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-end=\"1536\" data-start=\"1134\"\u003eAfter harvest, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks at temperatures between 20 and 25°C. Fermentation lasts approximately 15 days, with gentle extraction to preserve the finesse and fruitiness. The wine then ages for 16 months, with 50% going into used barriques and 50% into large 85-hectoliter vats. This is followed by a further 10 months of bottle aging before release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-end=\"398\" data-start=\"375\" data-section-id=\"9tra1w\"\u003e Grape composition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-end=\"520\" data-start=\"400\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-end=\"437\" data-start=\"400\"\u003eCorvina Veronese – La Grola (70%)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"440\" data-start=\"437\"\u003e This grape gives body, soft tannins and aromas of black fruit and spices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-end=\"614\" data-start=\"522\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-end=\"552\" data-start=\"522\"\u003eCorvinone – La Grola (25%)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"555\" data-start=\"552\"\u003e Strengthens the structure with extra concentration and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-end=\"709\" data-start=\"616\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-end=\"646\" data-start=\"616\"\u003eRondinella – La Grola (5%)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"649\" data-start=\"646\"\u003e Brings freshness, colour stability and subtle floral notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-end=\"1888\" data-start=\"1857\" data-section-id=\"1kwabyh\"\u003e Tasting notes and serving suggestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-end=\"2326\" data-start=\"1890\"\u003eThe wine opens with intense aromas of blackcurrant, violet, and ripe cherries, followed by delicate notes of vanilla, tobacco, and dark chocolate.
