Aldegheri Amarone Della Valpolicella Santambrogio 1997
Valpolicella, also known as the splendida contea (splendid earldom), is the general name given to four small valleys, carved out by mountain streams which rose from ancient glaciers in the Lessinia Mountains. The combination of fresh mountain air and mild breezes from Lake Garda creates wonderful natural micro-climates, ideal conditions for vine cultivation, which expert loving hands then transform into fine wine. This highly prestigious wine is produced exclusively from hillside vineyards, whose finest grapes are left to raisin on mats after being harvested. The wine undergoes a long ageing process before being served, first in oak barrels and then in bottles in underground cellars.
