    *7R* 2016 La Dama Amarone della Valpolicella (Veneto, IT)

    7R

    Creamier wines with balanced fruit, alcohol, acidity, and body. The "yummy" section.

    *7R* 2016 La Dama Amarone della Valpolicella (Veneto, IT)

    First generation winemakers are at the helm of La Dama, producing an amarone that is just as complex and elegant as the families who have been doing this for centuries. This wine is certified organic, and full of flavors like dark berries, dark chocolate, and a blend of spices. It takes time to make a great amarone; all Amarone wines are made using the appassimento technique. Grapes are partially dried, gently pressed and slowly fermented. They must spend at least two years maturing in wood.

    About The Varietal

    Valpolicella Blend

    A Valpolicella Blend consists of the three native red grape varieties cultivated in the Veneto region of Italy. The key players are Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella, which is the trio behind Valpolicella DOC wines. These same grapes are the components of the esteemed Amarone wines, where they undergo a partial drying process to produce these rich, supple wines.
