Amarone Classico 'Rhetico' Bolla 2019

Bolla's Amarone Classico 'Rhetico' is an iconic red from Valpolicella. It takes its name from the ancient cult of Reitia, the divinity of fertility and abundance worshipped by the ancient Venetians. In accordance with tradition, after the harvest the grapes are left to dry in a controlled environment to give structure and the characteristic raisin profile. The nose reveals elegant hints of evolved red fruit with notes of cocoa and sweet spices. The palate is full and full-bodied but surprises with freshness on the finish
