Montresor, a historic and dynamic Veronese winery, finds in this frosted bottle the embodiment of its glorious past, symbolizing a tradition deeply rooted in the Valpolicella territory for over a century.
Patented in the early 1900s to protect the wine from the ocean sun during the first exports to North America, the frosted bottle has remained unchanged over the years, making this product highly recognizable and appreciated worldwide.
A hallmark of Cantine Giacomo Montresor, this Amarone, crafted from the appassimento of indigenous grapes like Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella, pours into the glass with a brilliant yet intense ruby red hue. On the nose, it unfolds in a precise and clean manner, offering a mix of fresh red fruits and delicate oriental spices, which evolve into notes of tobacco and leather in older vintages.
On the palate, it is velvety and smooth, with a body as bold as it is precise in revealing the full structure of this Valpolicella wine. At the same time, Montresor’s winery has remained true to its identity, delivering a pleasant, lively, and fresh sip with a long finish of sour cherries and spices.
Pairing history with dishes becomes possible thanks to this timeless yet modern Amarone: from braised meats to aged cheeses, it will never cease to evoke dreams of the long journeys it has taken, always safeguarded by its iconic bottle, the genius creation of its inventor.
