An intense, refined, emotional wine that expresses the soul of Valpolicella.

Description

Every ten years we bottle, from the best wine ageing during that period, a special, limited-edition Amarone to celebrate Corteforte’s ten-year anniversary.

“XXX Anni in due Secoli” (30 Years in Two Centuries) 1989-2019 (the third ten-year anniversary after 1999 and 2009) was produced from grapes of the 2013 vintage, and we are particularly proud of it for its abundance of aromas that recall ripe wild berries, spices and cocoa; for its richness of flavour that harmoniously adds brandied cherry, leather and dried flowers to the scents on the nose; and for its flourishing, very long finish.
