Ca dei Maghi Amarone Della Valpolicella classico `canova` riserve

Expertly made. Sophisticated and complex Amarone

A classic Amarone with flavours of cherry, spice, chocolate and plum. Cà dei Maghi is a small farm in the heart of the sweet hills of Valpolicella, amongst the vineyards not far from the centre of Fumane. Although the winery started in the 1950's it is only since 2011 when Paolo Creazzi took over the reins that this estate has gone from being 'good' to outstanding. Each year he seeks to express classical Valpolicella at its very best.

The Amarone "Canova" is made from grapes that come from the "Canova" vineyard, carefully picked by hand and then dried for 3 to 4 months. After this process, the wine ages in large wooden barrels for as much as 60 months, with each moment of aging enhancing its character and complexity.

With its ruby red colour reminiscent of the light reflections of a pomegranate, the Amarone "Canova" reveals a broad and sophisticated aroma on the nose. Aromatic layers of red fruit infused with spirits, rhubarb, blond tobacco, cinnamon, and subtle hints of kina and chocolate seduce the senses.

On the palate, this Amarone presents itself as an enveloping and structured experience, with tremendous balanced versatility. The taste buds are indulged with an array of Flavors, including berries, blackberries and chocolate, making every sip a true delight for any wine lover.
