  • Understanding Amarone
    UNDERSTANDING AMARONE At 3000 years old, the ancient appassimento winemaking method is the epitome of tried and true. This technique of drying fully ripe grapes on mats or slated crates, for a considerable period of time before fermentation, reaches its apotheosis in the great Italian wines, Amarone and Ripasso. This method helps accentuate the sugars, energize the acids and integrate the tannins resulting in deeper coloured and fuller-flavoured wines. It’s fairly simple. Each producer determines the drying time of their grapes. Ideally, the grapes should raisinate in a temperature and humidity controlled environment to prevent rot. The dehydrated grapes are pressed and fermented dry. Since over 50% of each grape’s liquid (mostly water) is lost to the dehydration process, the flavours of the final wine are intensely concentrated and the alcohol level is anywhere from 2-5% higher than a typical table wine. The secret of this wine’s resurgence is directly related to the popularity of intense, fruit-forward New World wines. Amarones share some of the flavour profile of California Zinfandel or Australian Shiraz, but with a more refined balance between the complex aromas and flavours Amarone is produced in the region of Veneto by estates that make Valpolicella, one of the most popular wines of this area in Northeastern Italy. Amarone della Valpolicella, usually known as Amarone, is a typically rich Italian dry red wine made from the partially dried grapes of the Corvina (40.0% – 70.0%), Rondinella (20.0% – 40.0%) and Molinara (5.0% – 25.0%) varieties. The wine was awarded Denominazione di Origine Controllata (DOC) status in December 1990.

Today, portion of Valpolicella, close to Lake Garda, whereas unfortunately, the panoramic view of the vineyards, from the Valpantena is in the east. The Classico zone is made up of foothills of the Lesini Mountains to the north, is spoilt in three main valleys: from west to east, Fumane, Marano and many places by a patchwork of unattractive industrial Negrar. All are open to the north and thus cool winds funnel development. Valpollicella literally means ‘valley of many down from the mountains. Fumane is the most open valley cellars’. This part of Italy is best known for production of and produces the ripest fruit.

  • Amarone Della Valpolicella 2016
    Amarone della Valpolicella Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita CLASSICO 2016 Produced in the classic Valpolicella area. The drying on racks of the Corvina, Rondinella, Rossignola and Negrara grapes until mid January and the ageing in large oak barrels and barriques, together with the long period of rest in bottles, allow us to enjoy this great wine. 2016 Climatic trend Winter temperatures were higher than average and particularly dry apart from a little snow. The following months saw temperatures fluctuate, with lower than average values, particularly in July and August. Rainfall remained high, with some days of continuous rain. There were typical summer storms, but no more than normal. The weather was decidedly good with the arrival of September when, despite considera- bly intense rainfall, high temperatures and breezes kept humidity low, enabling the vines to reach maturity. Autumn drew to an end with mild temperatures lasting through until early December. At the beginning of April, early bud break took place in almost all of the vineyards, followed by rapid leaf production. Flowering took place as per normal, towards the end of May. Growth then slowed down and veraison was shown towards the end of July/early August, as has been the norm in the past for the various varieties and environments. Ripening was complete about a month later and harvesting of the grapes destined for storage in the fruttaio began in line with historical averages. Production Grape varieties made up of 70-75% Corvina Veronese, 20% Rondinella and 5% Rossignola e Negrara. The grapes to be used in the Amarone production are har- vested 1-2 weeks earlier than those for the Valpolicella wine.

    ITALY Viva Veneto! THE DIVERSE WINE REGION IN NORTHEASTERN ITALY IS WORTH DISCOVERING story and photos by Allison Levine amous for the canals of Venice, renowned for the architecture of Palladio and fabled for star-crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet, the Veneto region, in north- Feastern Italy, is equally celebrated for the fruit of the vine. Five of the region’s seven provinces produce wine: Verona, Vicenza, Padua, Treviso and Venice. With 25 DOCs and 11 DOCGs, the Veneto is responsible for producing 20% of all Italian DOC wines. A recent trip to the region was spent exploring and learning about the provinces and their wines, ranging from familiar names such as Prosecco, Soave, Valpolicella and Amarone, to lesser-known wines such as Bardolino, Raboso, Tai Rosso, Lison and many others. There are also many international varietals grown in the region, but below we honor some of the indigenous wines in each province. Verona Some of the region’s most recognized wines come from the province of Verona. The Soave area, which includes Soave DOC and two DOCGs (Soave Recioto and Soave Superiore), holds the largest vineyard expanse in Europe, with 6,500 hectares planted. Made with at least 65% Garganega and up to 30% Trebbiano di Soave, Soave is a fragrant, fresh, medium-bodied wine.

  • The Tedeschi Family Boasts of an Almost 4-Century Long History in the Wine Business and Has Always Believed in the Richness of Valpolicella Wine Production
    The Tedeschi family boasts of an almost 4-century long history in the wine business and has always believed in the richness of Valpolicella wine production. They have reinterpreted it in a modern key and have adopted the most innovative production methods. They respect and promote the area by producing powerful, elegant, typical wines that are rich in history. The Story of a Life, in a Vine. The Tedeschi family’s vineyards all lie on hillside sites and some of them are among the historic vineyards of the Valpolicella Classico zone, such as the famous Monte Olmi, which was the first cru of the denomination. Another historic plot is the Fabriseria vineyard, which gives its name to an entire line of wines that includes our famous Amarone which is only produced in exceptional vintages. The purchase of the Maternigo Estate in the Valpolicella D.O.C. area has enabled the company to become totally self-sufficient as regards fruit supply. It is actually at Maternigo that we began work on zoning and establishing Decades of Knowledge in those hands the characteristics of each of our vineyards: a fundamental research project that is one of the first of its kind in Valpolicella. A perfect knowledge of the soils and of the behaviour of the vines in each individual vineyard parcel has allowed us to optimize our vineyard husbandry and to put the finishing touches to the process of reducing environmental impact that we began several years ago and which – at Maternigo – has already been concluded with total conversion to organic farming.
