Suitable for pairing with sharp cheeses and meat courses, the Vaio Armaron Amarone offers a lavish finish to any meal. A product of supreme viticulture and expertise.

Tasting Notes

An important Amarone with extraordinary power and complexity: a classic in the Italian winemaking portfolio. This is the icon wine of the historic Serego Alighieri estate and comes from the eponymous vineyard, the source it seems of the very name Amarone itself. Opaque ruby red. On the nose intense and elegant, with hints of fruit preserved in spirit, dried plums and cocoa. On the palate well-structured, well-balanced, with silky tannins and a long finish revealing ripe cherries and sweet spices.
