The 2020 vintage allowed for grapes of excellent health and concentration, which after a natural resting period in drying lofts developed a deep and multifaceted aromatic profile. Unlike more opulent and heavy Amaroni, Montezovo's version stands out for its marked acidity and a mineral savoriness derived from the vineyard's calcareous soils. It is a wine of great structure, yet capable of maintaining a dynamic, vibrant, and incredibly persistent sip, proving to be a perfect ambassador for the Veronese territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSensory Profile\u003c\/b\u003e In the glass, it presents an intense and deep ruby red, with reflections verging on garnet. The bouquet is an explosion of ripe red fruit: sour cherry in spirit, dried plum, and small black forest fruits stand out. With aeration, noble tertiary notes of bitter cocoa, sweet tobacco, black pepper, and a delicate balsamic trail reminiscent of eucalyptus emerge. On the palate, the entry is warm and enveloping; the structure is imposing, but supported by silky and well-polished tannins.

After natural drying in drying lofts for over 100 days, the Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella grapes concentrated sugars and aromas, creating a nectar of incredible depth.
