Bolla Amarone 2006

Bolla was the very first winery to produce a wine with the name "Amarone" on the label. 

Made only in exceptional years and in the traditional winemaking technique from Roman times, the hand-picked grapes are laid out to dry in barns to add more flavor and complexity to the wine. Amarone is lushly flavored, intensely concentrated and silky-textured. It is deep garnet, velvety-red in color with aromas of wild-cherry jam, spice and hints of cedar. It delivers rich, dry, black-cherry flavors and an elegant finish that is long, round, and persistent with cacao and spice. Aged in large Slavonian oak casks for minimum of 24 to 36 months.

Enjoy Bolla Amarone with red meats, roasts and grilled dishes, game, braised meats, and all well aged cheeses.
