Tasting Note

The ruby colour captivates with its tone and intensity. The fruit is exuberant with a very pleasurable sour cherry taste, merged with hints of chocolate and sweet spices. The subtlety enhances the floral component of the purple rose. Aromatic notes emerge with increasing conviction, along with hints of star anise and wild gooseberry. The tertiary elements are subtle and leave the perception of pleasurable notes of arabica and mild tobacco. It finds its utmost expression at the table with seasoned cheeses, well cooked meats, braised dishes and game.

The wine has a deep ruby red colour with ripe fruit aromas including dark cherry, blackberry and plum. The palate is full-bodied with soft tannins, a persistent finish and a hint of spice. This Amarone is an ideal pairing with hearty meats, game or aged cheese. Ca' dei Frati Pietro Dal Cero Amarone della Valpolicella is a timeless wine that adds a touch of luxury to any special occasion or celebration.

About the Winery

Ca' dei Frati

Though a mention of the Ca Dei Frati community can be traced back to as early as 1782, the wine label was officially established during 1939. It was during this time that Felice Dal Cero shifted to a cellar in Lugana found in the district of Sirmione in Italy. His son Pietro took the legacy forward in 1969 when he created the first wine under the Casa Dei Frati label, later renamed as Ca dei Frati. Today this label is managed by his wife and children very efficiently.
