Dark fruit richness defines Zenato Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2019, layering dried plum and blackberry compote with notes of leather, cocoa and warm spice. The palate is opulent yet surprisingly lifted, with velvety tannins, bright acidity and a long, savory, pepper‑tinged finish that keeps this powerful wine from feeling heavy. A confident, concentrated 2019 that already thrills but clearly has the structure to develop further complexity in bottle.

Zenato’s Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is a powerful, ageworthy red from Sant’Ambrogio in the heart of Valpolicella Classica, crafted from Corvina, Rondinella, Oseleta and Croatina grapes that are dried for about four months before a long fermentation and extended cask aging. Known as one of the estate’s flagship wines, it combines intense notes of cherry and dark fruit under spirit with spice, bay leaf and chocolatey nuances, delivering a richly textured yet balanced expression of the traditional appassimento style.
