Description

One Specialty 3L Bottle of Speri Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico "Sant'Urbano" DOC 2005


This limited edition 3L bottle of Amarone is 70% Corvina Veronese, 25% Rondinella, and 5% Corvinone from the Sant Urbano vineyard in the Fumane Commune grown at 918-1,148 feet a.s.l. The vineyards have excellent exposure with calcareous, clayey soil of volcanic origins that aid moisture retention. After harvest, the grapes are dried on racks for approximately 100 days then fermented in February with 25-35 days of maceration and daily pump overs. The wine is then aged three years in medium Slovenian oak casks and new Allier 500 l. tonneaux with an additional 12 months in bottle. An important wine of rare elegance.
