Amarone della Valpolicella Proemio Santi 2007

Wine features

The description

Created for the first time in 1995, this flagship wine of the Santi estate is produced only in the very best years and in limited quantities.

The vineyards that produce the grapes are located in the best classic zones. The fruit is harvested by hand from the end of September and the healthiest, loosest bunches are placed in cases in the fruit room under controlled levels of humidity to partially dry for more than four months.

Proemio is the goal we aim to satisfy and is the maximum result of our commitment; today after years of  research and experimentation it is the fruit of an ambitious grape selection project and processing style. This effort translates into exceptional intensity, complexity and concentration: a dark ruby colour with a very slight garnet edge; an intense and very complex perfume with dominant notes of raisins, cherries and prunes with hints of vanilla, violets and cinnamon; and a full, generous and firm flavour with an elegant and very persistent aftertaste of jam and spices. 

This is a very refined Amarone with great balance and infinite elegance and, thanks to its structure and extracts it will be able to improve with the passage of the years.

This is the company's maximum expression, the finest combination of tradition, technique and determination. Production began with the 1995 harvest. Now it is finally a great Amarone which stands out for its integrity and for its great balance between power and refinement. A winner of many prizes, this wine fears no comparison!
