{"product_id":"alzero-quintarelli-1998","title":"Alzero Quintarelli 1998","description":"Quintarelli Alzero 1998 is an appassimento-style wine made from Bordeaux grape varieties by the estate of the legendary Giuseppe Quintarelli in the Valpolicella region of Veneto. Produced in the same style as Quintarelli`s prized Amarone, the sought-after Alzero uses Cabernet Sauvignon (40%), Cabernet Franc (40%) and Merlot (20%) grapes which are air-dried for around three months before undergoing fermentation. The wine is then matured for around the same amount of time as the estate`s Amarone, first in French oak, then in larger Slavonian oak casks. \"Quintarelli`s Alzero is one of Italy`s most unique, compelling wines, particularly in top vintages, in which it can be utterly mind-blowing. Alzero is most Cabernet Franc, with a dollop of Merlot, made Amarone-style. The 1998 reveals compelling layers of ripe dark fruit, sweet herbs, chocolate and spices that gradually unfurl in the glass. The wine possesses gorgeous length and balance.\" Antonio Galloni","brand":"Quintarelli Giuseppe","offers":[{"title":"Duty Paid","offer_id":62425169756490,"sku":"HED3202","price":565.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/7696\/2634\/files\/HED3202.jpg?v=1781911811","url":"https:\/\/hedonism.co.uk\/products\/alzero-quintarelli-1998","provider":"Hedonism Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
