Tenuta Sant’Antonio Campo dei Gigli Amarone della Valpolicella 2015

The wine with the most awards from the best international juries. The oldest vineyard is dedicated to the lily, the flower that symbolises Tenuta Sant’Antonio. A single vine grows in that vineyard, giving a unique wine.

• Colour: inky ruby red with purple reflections
• Nose: wild fruits, woody hints, and mineral tones with aromas of liquorice, black pepper, tobacco, spices, and chocolate.
• Palate: balanced, very intense, with a lingering robust body, to be drunk at least 5 years after harvesting.
• Corvina and Corvinone 70% – Rondinella 20% – Croatina 5% – Oseleta 5%

“This is quite an unusual Amarone with plenty of black pepper, blackberry bush and eucalyptus, punctuating an otherwise blackberry-focused nose. Peppery and spicy. Full-bodied, open-knit and fruit-forward. Juicy on the finish. Drink from 2021.” – 92 points, James Suckling
