Santico, Amarone della Valpolicella

Red wine | Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG

A unique style!
The name Amarone always promises a moment of exceptional pleasure. That of the Santi winery is no exception to the rule, with its intense and generous aromas of raisins, cherry jam and plum, sprinkled with notes of cinnamon and clove. A wine that seduces with a full and velvety style, and a beautiful toasted almond finish. This Amarone shines in all its splendor, and all that at a remarkable price, when you know the work necessary for the style!
