Cà dei Maghi Amandorlato Sanzenel 2011

Amandorlato is somewhere between an Amarone and a Recioto. Sanzenel is made from dried Cabernet-Sauvignon and is only made in the greatest years and even then in minute quantities.
Paolo Creazzi owns barely 4.5ha in Fumane, in the heart of Valpolicella Classico. These are classic Valpolicellas and Amarones, ranging from wonderfully open and fruity to full-bodied and intensely spicy, but all remarkably pure vinified. Still little known, but in some Decanter tastings they made their mark and came out among the region’s absolute best! The Amarone Riserva even scored as the best wine, ahead of wines from domains like Allegrini, Dal Forno, Bussola, Tedeschi, Monte del Frà, Masi, etc., all wines with different price tags!
