Vigneti di Ettore Amarone della Valipolicella

In the Glass

The Story

This Amarone uses the concentrated red-fruit and spice character of dried Valpolicella grapes while preserving a surprisingly lively finish.

The Producer

Vigneti di Ettore is a small Valpolicella producer drawing on traditional varieties and careful vineyard work.

Place & Terroir

Valpolicella's limestone hillsides suit Corvina-family grapes used for appassimento.

Perfect Pairings

Roast lamb, grilled beef, wild mushrooms or a savoury slow-cooked dish.

Serve around 16–18°C, with air for youthful structured bottles.

Worth Knowing

The producer also makes sweet Recioto, demonstrating two very different outcomes from dried grapes.
