Allegrini Fieramonte Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva - Item Code: 07059
Discover Allegrini Fieramonte Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva:
The Allegrini Fieramonte Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva is a wine that commands attention, both for its rich history and its complex flavor profile. Hailing from the Veneto region of Italy, this wine is made predominantly from Corvina grapes, with smaller amounts of Rondinella and Molinara varieties. The grapes are carefully selected and harvested by hand to ensure only the highest quality fruit is used.
Upon first pour, you’ll notice an intense ruby red color that hints at the depth of flavors within. On the nose, it offers a symphony of aromas – ripe cherries, dried figs, cocoa powder and a hint of tobacco – all beautifully interwoven to create an enticing bouquet.
On the palate, this Amarone Riserva showcases a perfect balance between acidity and tannins. It’s full-bodied yet elegant; powerful yet refined. The initial taste reveals flavors of dark fruit compote layered with notes of spice and earthiness. As it evolves in your mouth, you’ll discover undertones of chocolate-covered espresso beans and dried herbs that add complexity to this already intricate wine.
The finish is long-lasting with lingering notes of dried fruits and spices that invite you back for another sip. This wine has excellent aging potential; it can be enjoyed now or cellared for several years to allow its flavors to further develop.

Amarone is a distinctive Italian red wine known for its rich, full-bodied character, primarily produced in the Veneto region, specifically Valpolicella. This wine is crafted using a unique winemaking technique called appassimento, where grapes such as Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara are dried before fermentation, resulting in a dry to off-dry style that showcases intense flavors of dried fruits like figs and raisins, alongside cherries and plums.
The aromatic profile of Amarone features intense dark fruit notes complemented by herbal hints and subtle undertones of tobacco and leather. Its velvety tannins provide a luxurious mouthfeel that pairs beautifully with grilled meats, game dishes, aged cheeses, and rich pasta meals. Often reserved for special occasions or enjoyed as a sipping wine, Amarone embodies the essence of Italian winemaking tradition while offering an exquisite tasting experience.
