The Amarone Classico della Valpolicella is the most prized Veronese wines and one of the most important Italian reds. It was created from the evolution of Recioto, one of the oldest wines in the Italian wine history. It is characterized by an intense ruby red colour, a full and velvety taste and its fragrance has a typical, yet very pronounced aroma which recalls ripe fruit, black cherry jam and plums.
