Riondo Amarone della Valpolicella offers rich aromas of ripe black cherry and plum, with dried fruit characters and a touch of toasty spice. The palate is plush with ripe plum and bramble characters, a hint of vanilla and pepper, supple tannins and juicy acidity. A lovely example of this wine that offers great value for money.
After manual-picking in mid-September, the Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone grapes are stored on racks in drying rooms, until the January following the harvest. Fermentation takes place with skin contact and continual pumping over. The wine is aged in oak for 24 months.
