Description
Rizzardi’s Amarone Classico 3CRU is made from hand-picked grapes from the three vineyards of Calcarole, Pojega & Rovereti. After the traditional grape drying period the wine undergoes a long fermentation followed by three years maturation in oak.
Aromatic with ripe dark berried fruit alongside sweet spice, a ripe, rich style. Powerful, rich and rounded with abundant, ripe, dark berried fruit supported by fine oak. This is a terrific example of Amarone, being well structured yet maintaining good freshness. To enjoy at it’s best we’d advise that you decant this at least an hour before serving.
47% Corvina, 21% Rondinella, 19% Corvinone, 10% Barbera 3% Sangiovese

2023 Gamay, Domaine Moulin Camus, IGP Loire
Gamay
This 100% Gamay from Domaine Moulin Camus comes from grapes grown on a slope of pure mica schist which gives the wine juicy, rounded red fruits a bit of tautness and minerality. A warmer than normal, sulphur free maceration for three days helps bring out some warmth and roundness to the fruit, making it slightly beaujolais'esque but without the bubble gum/commercial edge that one would normally find in this price range.
