With this red cuvée, the Dal Cero family impressively demonstrates that they can also produce excellent red wines full of power and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn fact, the Amarone della Valpolicella, named after the father Pietro dal Cero, is, alongside the iconic wine Il Lugana, the pride of the family. Only a few years ago, the Dal Cero family bought the Vigneto di Luxium parcel in their great-grandfather's homeland in Valpolicella, east of Verona, to produce this special Amarone from the indigenous varieties Corvina, Corvione, Rondinella, and Croatina.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2008, after a decade of intensive preparatory work, the first vintage of Ca dei Frati Amarone was presented. Already the second vintage received high ratings in Italian wine guides. Gian Franco, Igino, and Anna Maria now cultivate 12 hectares of vineyards in Pian di Castagnè.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePietro dal Cero – A Gift for Wine Lovers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, the Pietro dal Cero shines in a deep ruby red with black-red reflections. On the nose, the spicy Cà dei Frati Amarone della Valpolicella 2018 reveals a rich bouquet of raisined, red and black fruits, such as Amarena cherries, blackberry mousse, or wild blueberry compote. Balsamic notes, tobacco, and roasted coffee beans, well-integrated notes from barrique aging, as well as a refreshing mint note are also present. On the palate, preserved sour cherries meet dried plums and berry compote, as well as dark chocolate and spicy star anise. The Cà dei Frati red wine is complex, concentrated, with an animating acidity and silky soft tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a food pairing, the Cà dei Frati Amarone della Valpolicella 2018 harmonizes very well with dark meat, both with grilled steaks, such as Bistecca di Fassone, and with Ossobuco, the traditional Italian stew, but also with stews and braised game dishes, such as wild boar goulash or venison roast, and with aged cheese, it is an excellent choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCà dei Frati – Pietro dal Cero\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven though the Ca dei Frati winery is located very close to Lake Garda, the grapes for the Amarone come from another wine region of Italy: Valpolicella. This wine region adjoins the eastern shore of Lake Garda. The selected parcel Vigneto di Luxium in Pian di Castigné with limestone soils with rubble and clay is ideal for the indigenous grape varieties Corvina, Corvione, Rondinella, and Croatina.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe special thing about making the most prestigious Amarone Valpolicella DOCG, which is appreciated all over the world, is that it is made from dried grapes. After harvesting, these are dried for about 100-120 days on wooden racks in well-ventilated attics, with the grapes being turned several times. During this appassimento period, the grapes lose a third to half of their weight, and the valuable substances, such as sugar and polyphenols, concentrate. Following this elaborate process, the raisins are slowly fermented and vinified during the cool winter months. The aging takes place first for 24 months in large wooden barrels with malolactic fermentation (biological deacidification), then 12 months in stainless steel tanks and another 24 months in the bottle. It is a heavy wine with a great richness of aromas. It owes its name to slight bitter notes, because in Italian, bitter means \"amaro.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmarone is considered one of Italy's great red wines. In its youth, the Cà dei Frati Amarone della Valpolicella 2018 presents itself as powerful yet soft and still characterized by the wood. With maturity, the extract-rich red wine develops complexity and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAmarone – A Red Wine and its Values\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorvina, Corvinone, Croatina, and Rondinella\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16% vol alcohol\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7.2g\/l acidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5.1g\/l residual sugar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cà dei Frati","offers":[{"title":"2.25 liters","offer_id":53073972494670,"sku":"001CDF037","price":145.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0905\/1124\/5646\/files\/ca-dei-frati-pietro-dal-cero-2018-3er-holzkiste.jpg?v=1751011311","url":"https:\/\/nurgutes.de\/en\/products\/ca-dei-frati-pietro-dal-cero-3er-holzkiste","provider":"nur Gutes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
