Description

This outstanding Amarone from the “Il Bosco” single vineyard has a fascinatingly multi-faceted bouquet hinting of cherries, damsons and preserved fruit, along with nuances of cocoa and roasted nuts. This wonderful assemblage, consisting of the Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara grape varieties, is dry on the palate, with skilfully integrated tannins. The wine is velvety, showing a fine spice and subtle mineral notes.

Gerardo Cesari founded the winery in San Pietro, Italy in 1936, and the Cesari estate has been producing masterful Amarone wines for decades. The Il Bosco Amarone is produced only if the grapes meet the highest quality standards. The meticulously harvested grapes dry at the winery before gentle pressing. The wine matured for more than two years in a combination of French barriques and large Slavic oak casks and was further refined while aging for another 6 to 8 months in the bottle before selling.

The Cesari Il Bosco Amarone Classico DOC is an ideal accompaniment to game dishes and, in principle, to grilled and roasted meat.
