What Grapes Are in Amarone Wine?
Amarone della Valpolicella is traditionally made from a blend of Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella grapes.
These indigenous Italian varieties are carefully dried before fermentation, creating Amarone’s signature rich, full-bodied flavor.
Product Overview
Bottega Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG is an extraordinary expression of one of Italy's most prestigious red wines. Crafted from hand-selected Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella grapes grown in the hills of Valpolicella, this Amarone offers intense complexity, elegance, and depth.
