The Story

Amarone Riserva “Ca ‘Florian” is made with selected grapes from one of the oldest vineyards that Tommasi family owns. The grapes (75% Corvina, 10% Rondinella and 5% Corvinone) come from vines with an average age of 20 years. Amarone comes from the respect for the nature and the wise cultivation of the vines, from a patient and painstaking selection of grapes and a strong bond with the tradition. 

After harvesting and manual selection, the grapes are laid down in boxes of 5 to 6 kg and naturally dried in the Fruttaio for 4 months. The grapes are then gently pressed the following January and slowly fermented on the skins using indigenous yeasts, which takes place for about 30 days. The wine is aged first in tonneau for a year and then for 3 years in Slavonian casks and lastly aged in bottle for a year.

 

 

Origin: Ca' Florian vineyard, Comune San Pietro in Cariano

Vinification: The wine is aged for 4 years, first in tonneau of 500 Lt and the other three years in big Slavonian oak casks. The wine is than refined in the bottle for another year.

Tasting Notes: A structured red wine with a remarkable personality and a bright, deep ruby color. Complex and elegant on the nose, with a rich bouquet of black fruits like plums, cherries and blackberries. Red fruits scents, balsamic and spicy nuances with a hint of dark chocolate.
