From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

The La Corte del Pozzo Amarone della Valpolicella, meticulously crafted by Fasoli Gino, offers a deep dive into the rich history and craftsmanship of Veneto winemaking. The name "La Corte del Pozzo" recalls the gathering place around the well on Fasoli Gino's estate in the early 20th century, where local grape growers would gather. This heritage lives on in current collaborations with the same families as forty years ago, with each bottle representing a piece of this shared history. The Amarone is produced from grapes carefully dried in wooden crates for five to six months, giving them an almost raisin-like texture before being pressed and vinified.

After a lengthy fermentation of 25 to 35 days in steel vats, this Amarone is aged for at least three years in oak barrels, after which it refines in the bottle for several more years. This patient process results in a wine with an intense, almost hypnotic deep red color that transforms into a warm garnet with age. The bouquet is rich and layered, with aromas of ripe plums, black cherries, and blackberries, complemented by refined notes of almond macaroons, cloves, cinnamon, and a hint of vanilla. The palate is powerful and tannic, yet always refined and complex, making Amarone a true experience.

The power and intensity of La Corte del Pozzo Amarone make it the perfect companion for rich and savory dishes. It's sublime with dishes like pepperoni, roast beef, or a juicy steak marinated in balsamic syrup. Classic Italian cheeses like Parmesan also pair perfectly with this robust wine. This Amarone is not only a culinary companion but also a wonderful choice for special occasions, where its depth and complexity can truly shine. It's a wine that deserves to be enjoyed calmly and attentively, with every sip reflecting the rich history and craftsmanship of Fasoli Gino.
