Corte Pitora Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG - BennatiThe Corte Pitora Amarone from Bennati is an expressive red wine cuvée made from the grape varieties Corvina (85%), Rondinella (10%) and Molinara (5%). This Italian wine sparkles a dark ruby red in the glass. The bouquet has complex aromas of ripe plums and juicy cherries with delicate floral notes. On the palate, this red wine is full-bodied with light spicy notes and a strong tannin structure. The finish is wonderfully long, elegant and carried by cherry notes. Vinification of the Bennati Amarone della Valpolicella Corte Pitora The grapes for this red cuvée come from 15-year-old vines in the north-west of Verona, in the Veneto region. After the grapes are carefully harvested by hand, they are crushed in the wine cellar. The mash is fermented in stainless steel tanks and then matured in large wooden barrels for a total of 24 months. This gives the wine its intense color, strong tannins and spicy notes.
