The 2015 Allegrini "Fieramonte" Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva (1.5L Magnum) is a monumental, benchmark expression of the region, hailing from a stellar, highly lauded vintage. Fieramonte is Allegrini’s crown jewel—sourced from a high-altitude, south-east facing hillside vineyard in Mazzurega (415 meters) where the deep, clayey-calcareous soils naturally buffer the vines against drought, ensuring remarkable depth and structural equilibrium. The blend is 45% Corvina Veronese, 45% Corvinone, 5% Rondinella, and 5% Oseleta. Following a meticulous 3 to 4-month appassimento process where the grapes lost over 40% of their weight, the wine was aged for 48 months in French oak barriques, blended for an additional 6 months in large Slavonian oak barrels, and given extensive bottle rest before release. In the glass, it shows a deep, intense ruby red color with subtle violet reflections at the rim. The nose is incredibly broad, elite, and highly complex, unfurling with rich, concentrated aromas of jammy figs, crushed blackberries, and preserved dark cherries, layered with warm undertones of sweet tobacco, coffee beans, cloves, and a striking graphitic, balsamic edge. On the palate, this magnum formatting beautifully preserves a vibrant, driving line of fresh, linear acidity that cuts through a massive, opulent core of dark fruit, cocoa, and sweet baking spices. The mouthfeel is dense, enveloping, and impeccably structured, framed by pronounced, fine-grained, chewy tannins
