2011 Bertani Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico
2011 Bertani Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico Density and dryness that really comes together here, after almost 10 years in bottle. It’s very deep and vertical on the palate. Very pure and beautiful crushed cherries, dried flowers, carbon and pumice. Wonderful all round. Drink or hold.
For more than a century and a half we have made wines that are recognizable for their identity, wines with a clear and therefore unmistakable stylistic profile. We have always chosen the path of territorial wines, even when it is method guiding us. Remaining coherent with our most authentic identity represents an essential value for us.
Holding fast to a mission for over a century means respecting what has been done and at the same time re-thinking it every day. This is why Bertani wines guarantee quality worthy of their potential and their reputation.
We know our winery profoundly and respect the genetic patrimony of our vineyards so as to protect the biodiversity of the land. We use non invasive ecological practices and count on the work of deeply committed men and women.
Red wine
Red wine has been prevalent since prehistory (the period before written records) as winemaking originated and spread throughout the world. In this case, “red blend” refers to any red wine that contains more than one red grape variety in the final product, though certain red blends can have their own designation as varietal wines despite comprising multiple grapes.
For much of the history of European wine, red blends were in fact more common than single varietals, as winemaking was typically region-centric and featured grapes consolidated from vineyards across a given area. One famous example of this practice is the Bordeaux blend, which originated in the 18th or 19th century and usually comprises Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
Though prominent red blends such as Bordeaux still remain popular, many red blends have been associated with lower quality due to the assumption that the term indicates cheaper table wines. However, many high-quality wine producers still elect to produce red blends, and these wines can in fact offer many unique and delicious flavors due to the winery’s ability to custom design the profile of their product.
