Production
Castelforte Amarone Riserva is a blend of the finest
batches of Castelforte Amarone with an extra two
years of ageing in wooden casks: it is a Winemaker’s
Choice of the most elegant batches showing the best
natural expressions of the fruit in the wine. The blend
for Riserva is necessarily limited: for its debut with
vintage 2015, only 15,000 bottles are available for all
markets as shown on the back labels that are counted
progressively.
Tasting Notes Castelforte Amarone Riserva is a full-bodied wine that
conveys great elegance and finesse with its
remarkable perfumes of prunes and black
cherry along with spicy cinnamon notes on the finish.
On the palate, hints of liquorice and cocoa powder
play with an exceptionally pleasant tannin that
caresses the mouth and invites another sip.
Wonderful for moments of meditation, it pairs perfectly
with wild game, stew and mature cheeses
