The grapes are selected hand by hand in September, placed in 6 Kg trunks and left to rest in our fruit-room. During the drying period, a sequence of biochemical processes, as the Botritis Nobile, partially transform sugars into glycerine.
After crushing the grapes, the maceration and fermentation processes let the Amarone Biologico be a very structured and incredibly aromatic wine. 2 years of ageing in oak barrels give a distinctive personality to this Amarone.
Intense red ruby colour with garnet shades, elegant bouquet with black cherry hints, very mature fruits and spices. It’s a wine with great structure and complexity, but still smooth and el
Traditionally served around 18°C, pairing with game, grilled meats, and ripened cheeses.
The new millennium was very significant for the Stefano Accordini winery. It was decided to move the wine production into the height of the Valpolicella Classica area, a move that would have allowed the production of wines of excellent quality. The project began with the purchase of 10 hectares in Cavolo, situated in the valley of Fumane at 550 metres above sea level.
Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grow in the vineyards high up in the hills where the grapes find mainly limestone and skeletal soil. These conditions lower the yield, but improve the quality. The milder climate compared to the plains and the high temperature variation influences the ripening of the fruit, encouraging the accumulation of particular colorants and aromatic substances, above all spicy notes, which make these wines unique and unmistakable.
The choice to produce wines in the hills proved to be a winner. The wines are unique both in taste and bouquet and were much appreciated right from the outset. Following the purchase of land and the creation of the new vineyards, the new winery was constructed and completed in 2011.
Every day the company works 25 hectares of vineyard in the highest region of the Valpolicella Classica district, which means the wines can be defined as the production of “mountain” wine. Thanks to the particular climatic conditions and the soil quality of this area, the wines have characteristics which are unique and unmistakeable.
The fourth generation, made up of Giacomo, Paolo and Marco, continue to work with passion and dedication in the activity of the family, concentrating on the salubrity and awareness of the impact on the environment. All vineyards of the company are cultivated according to biological methods, and the new agritourism B&B structure is run on energy obtained from solar panels.
