2010 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, Capitel Monte Olmi, Riserva, Tedesc

A modern German grape variety created from a cross between Riesling and Sylvaner. Still rather uncommon and experimental, but seen increasingly in sweeter, late-harvest wines.

This full-bodied Italian red wine is made from a blend of local Italian grapes, which are dried before being vinified. Dominated by intense fruit and spice flavours, the warming alcohol makes this style perfect for winter months or hearty food.
