Cesari Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2020 is a powerful and elegant Italian red wine crafted in the historic Classico zone of Valpolicella. Produced using the traditional appassimento method, where grapes are carefully dried before fermentation, this Amarone delivers exceptional depth, concentration, and richness while maintaining balance and refinement.
The nose is intense and layered, offering aromas of dried cherry, blackberry, fig, and plum, complemented by notes of cocoa, sweet spice, tobacco, and subtle vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and velvety, with rich flavors of dark dried fruit, chocolate, espresso, and baking spice. Structured tannins and well-integrated acidity lead to a long, warming finish with remarkable complexity.
Aged in oak to enhance structure and elegance, the 2020 vintage showcases both power and finesse. This classic Amarone pairs beautifully with braised meats, slow-cooked stews, game, aged cheeses, and hearty Italian dishes. Luxurious and age-worthy, Cesari Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2020 is an exceptional choice for special occasions or refined cellar selections.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"In the bottle with the dark frosted glass, the 2020 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is a rich and voluptuous wine with layers of dark fruit, baked plum and sweet barbecue spice. This air-dried blend of 55% Corvina Veronese, 25% Corvinone and 20% Rondinella maintains a classic Amarone profile with moderate complexity and a more approachable 15% alcohol content (which remains on the low end of this high-octane category of reds). There is a flurry of bitter and sweet spice on the close. Cesari counts over 100 hectares of hillside vineyards with different soil profiles ranging from 150 to 500 meters in elevation. This affords the winemaking team plenty of excellent sites to choose from." |

"A focused, driven and dense red with notes of dark plums, mulberries, warm spices and bark. Full-bodied with chewy tannins, it is structured and concentrated with ample texture. Rich fruit mingles beautifully with the spices. It has a compact finish with impressive length." |
