Bolla was the first winery to produce a wine with name "Amarone" on the label, in 1953. After harvest, the hand-picked grapes are laid out to dry in hillside barns called "Fruttai", to concentrate their flavours and bring added complexity to the wine - a traditional winemaking technique from roman times. Rich, full-bodied flavours of black cherries, prunes and cedar spice are followed by a long, elegant finish. Aged in oak for minimum of two years.

Vinification Details
Grapes are harvested by hand in the Valpolicella Classica vineyards, beginning in late September when the clusters are perfectly ripe, and immediately delivered to the fruttaio (drying room). Between 35 and 40% of total grape production is given over to Amarone. From January the dried grapes are destemmed and crushed, then moved to the fermenting vats. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out at a controlled temperature and maceration is managed with the aim of preserving the fruitiness of the grape alongside an intense but controlled extraction of tannins. Malolactic fermentation takes place partly in small wood and partly in 4000-litre barrels.
