From the Valpolicella hills of Veneto, Michele Castellani is a family-run estate with deep roots in the region, known for traditional Amarone crafted with precision and patience. Their focus is on preserving the richness of the style while maintaining balance and drinkability.
This is an amazing, ready-aged, incredibly priced Riserva Amarone... The “Cinque Stelle” Amarone is made using the classic appassimento method, with grapes dried after harvest to concentrate sugars and flavors before fermentation. The wine is then aged in oak to develop depth and integration, allowing the natural power of the fruit to evolve into a more layered, structured expression.
Rich and layered, it shows notes of dried cherry, plum, and fig, alongside hints of cocoa, spice, and tobacco. The palate is full-bodied and smooth, with concentrated fruit balanced by firm tannins and a long, warming finish. A natural pairing for braised meats, game, or aged cheeses.
