Amarone Classico Quintarelli 2004

HED83671 75cl 17%
Giuseppe Quintarelli is generally regarded as the `father of Amarone`. Until the time of his death in 2012, through his painstaking attention to detail through every stage of the winemaking process, he defined a style of Amarone which has made his wines among the most sought-after in the world, and which elevated him to the pantheon of great winemakers. His 2004 vintage, while having many years of evolution in bottle ahead of it, is ready to drink now. Intensely aromatic with a richly textured core of chocolately sweet cherry fruit, complemented by notes of wet earth, sweet tobacco and tar.

Quintarelli Giuseppe

Quintarelli Giuseppe

The Quintarelli estate in the northern Veronese village of Negrar dates back to 1924 and was founded by Bepe’s father, Silvio. Bepe himself took over in the 1950s, orchestrating a quality revolution through his meticulous work in the vineyard and his uncompromising practices in the cellar. The result was wines of such hedonistic deliciousness that they became some of the most sought-after in Italy; those made before Bepe’s death in 2012 especially so.

At the still family-run estate, Bepe’s legacy continues through his daughter, Fiorenza, along with her husband, Giampaolo, and their children. The core range of wines are those made in the appassimiento style (ie, with partially sun-dried grapes): the Valpolicella Superiore, Amarone, Rosso del Bepi (essentially an Amarone, but released instead of the Amarone in ‘lesser’ vintages) and Recioto. The Amarone, only released in exceptional years, is matured for fully seven years in old Slavonian oak before release. An Amarone Riserva sees 10 years.
