Recchia 2001 Cà Bertoldi Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
The Recchia brothers, Riccardo and Roberto, are among the area’s largest private owners. They sell fruit and juice but keep the best selections for their own production. The 2001 Amarone boasts a pretty ruby color and is redolent of cherry, cedar wood, almond paste, cola, resin and coffee. It has a chewy, sticky consistency and excellent purity of flavors.

Recchia 2003 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
This is a beautiful style of Amarone: Powdered chocolate and cherry aromas are made more buoyant and vibrant by a colorful supporting cast of root beer, cola, menthol, wild apple and almond amaretto. A wine like this offers enormous intensity to both the nose and the palate and leaves a long lasting trail of harmony and freshness.
