Tenute Salvaterra Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2021

Tenute Salvaterra Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2021 is a finely balanced expression of one of Veneto’s most iconic wines, showing the depth and structure Amarone is known for while keeping a remarkable sense of elegance. It captures the essence of Valpolicella rather than leaning on sweetness, resulting in a wine with personality, complexity, and classic appeal.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby to garnet color with impressive concentration. The nose opens with ripe dark cherry, dried plum, fig, and blackberry, layered with hints of cocoa, sweet spice, tobacco, and a subtle mineral edge that reflects its Classico origins. On the palate, the wine is rich and structured, yet not heavy, with concentrated fruit, polished tannins, and a long, layered finish. The balance between power and finesse gives it excellent aging potential, with the ability to evolve beautifully over the coming years as the dried-fruit and spice notes gain further complexity.

Production
Produced in the historic Valpolicella Classico zone in Veneto, this wine is crafted from Corvina, Rondinella, and Corvinone, grapes that thrive in the region’s hillside vineyards and benefit from the area’s well-ventilated, terroir-driven conditions. Amarone production traditionally involves drying the grapes after harvest to concentrate flavor and structure, followed by careful vinification to preserve balance and depth while avoiding excess residual sugar.

Food & Serving
This Amarone pairs beautifully with braised meats, game, rich pasta dishes, mushroom risotto, and mature cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano or aged pecorino. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for at least an hour before drinking to allow the wine to fully раскрыve its aromatic complexity and soften its structure.
