Experience unparalleled elegance with Giuseppe Quintarelli’s iconic Amarone della Valpolicella 2017—a masterpiece from Veneto’s renowned wine region. Crafted from meticulously selected grapes dried on custom racks in Quintarelli’s ventilated loft, this wine undergoes a slow dehydration process that intensifies its rich flavors and velvety texture.

Awarded 96 Points by James Suckling, this Amarone captivates with a multifaceted aroma profile of cigar box spice, black cherry fruitiness, and balsamic undertones.
