Description

Allegrini's Amarone della Valpolicella La Groletta is a wine with an intense and decisive flavour, obtained from Corvina Veronese and Rondinella grapes carefully selected by hand from vineyards located on the Venetian hills of Fumane. After a controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine ages for 5 months in the same containers, followed by 15 months in wood and 6 months in the bottle, producing rich and intense aromas.
