A wine that can withstand the test of time, Villa Girardi Amarone is truly bold and epic! Unique to the Valpolicella region, it's fermented with air-dried grapes. Intense and elegant with lovely aromas of ripe cherry and plum with a full-bodied, complex and velvety palate. Amarone means "the Great Bitter", and this bottle is true to its name with its signature bittersweet lingering finish. An absolute delight to drink now or a great addition to the cellar as it ages very well. A mouthwatering companion to Shanghai-style braised pork belly, aka hong shao rou!
