Description

Allegrini are one of the 'famous five' Amarone producers. They produce lush complex wines which carry their weight with considerable grace. With a compelling nose of smoked meat, black cherry and violets the palate is thickly textured with layer after layer of chocolate, fig and exotic spices. These wines provide a unique vinous experience and compared to the Dal Fornos of this world this is a bargain!

    Magnificent deep dark flavours

    This really is a deep, rich and full-bodied red, with magnificent ripe, dark, flavours swirling through it. Superb on a cold winter's evening. It gets even better with age - the flavours become smoother, deeper and mellower. Still working my way through my '98 Allegrini Amarones - gets more and more difficult to open one, as that means there's one less in the cellar.....

    you've got to try this....!

    A truly incredible wine that is made from grapes that have been left to dry off the vine in the attic of the winery for around nien months. Complex, deep rich flavours from this dry fermented wine make this a truly memorable experience.
