Antiche Terre Amarone Baorna - Item Code: 04848
Tasting Notes and Characteristics:
The first sip of Antiche Terre Amarone Baorna envelops you in a velvet embrace, its deep garnet hue hinting at the richness within. Crafted in Italy, this Amarone delivers a symphony of dried black cherry, fig, and dark chocolate layered with subtle notes of tobacco and spice that linger long after each taste. With an alcohol by volume of 15.00%, it offers both power and elegance, making it the perfect companion for succulent lamb or a wedge of aged Parmesan. The wine’s signature blend—Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes—undergoes traditional appassimento drying to concentrate flavors before slow fermentation and oak aging. Each glass is an invitation to savor complexity and warmth at your table.
Producer Information: Antiche Terre Venete
Antiche Terre Venete is rooted in the heart of Valpantena, a fertile valley just north of Verona, where the family-run estate has cultivated vineyards since the early 1900s. Drawing on generations of expertise, they blend traditional Veronese winemaking with modern techniques, focusing on minimal intervention to express the unique terroir of their limestone-rich soils. Their philosophy centers on sustainable viticulture and careful grape selection, particularly for classic varietals like Corvina and Rondinella. Beyond their celebrated Amarone della Valpolicella, Antiche Terre Venete crafts elegant Ripasso and fresh Soave wines that highlight the diversity of Veneto’s microclimates. The estate also produces a limited range of grappa distilled from their own pomace, reflecting a commitment to quality across both wine and spirits categories within this storied Italian region.

Valpolicella is a renowned red wine from the Veneto region of Italy, characterized by its light to medium-bodied profile. This wine is primarily crafted from a blend of grape varieties including Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara, which contribute to its vibrant flavor notes of cherry, plum, and dried fruit, complemented by hints of herbs and spices.
The aromatic experience of Valpolicella features enticing red berries and floral notes like violet, alongside earthy undertones. With smooth tannins and moderate acidity—often enhanced in higher quality versions—it pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes such as pasta with tomato sauce, grilled meats, risotto, pizza, and aged cheeses. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for casual dining or celebratory gatherings.
