Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, high tannin, medium acidity, dry
The Sergio Zenato Amarone Riserva is Zenato's flagship wine, built from partially dried Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Oseleta grapes — a process that concentrates everything into a rich, brooding red. Expect waves of dried dark fruit, chocolate, and leather undercut by firm but well-integrated tannins and enough acidity to keep the wine fresh. Extended aging gives it a remarkable depth and length, making it a serious wine for the cellar or a special occasion table.
Serving: Serve at 16–18 °C.
