Bertani Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOC 2015
Bertani Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOC 2015
Description
“Bertani Amarone is a wine that’s larger than life”. Crowned Wine of the Year and awarded a perfect 100 points by James Suckling.
The 2015 Amarone from Bertani is modern but classic Bertani, emphasising clarity of fruit expression, freshness and finesse rather than density or power. Intense red colour with hints of garnet. On the nose, typical notes of plum, cherry and Morello cherry followed by tea leaves, licorice and spices. On the palate, notes of red berry fruit sweetened by soft notes of spices, in perfect balance with acidity.
Bottled in 2023, it will yield additional complexity of flavour and will soften for ideal drinking from 2025 onwards.
Aged for 7 years in 50-100 hectolitre Slavonian oak barrels before further aging in the bottle for at least 8 months prior to release on the market.

The Winery:
For more than a century and a half Bertani have made wines that are recognizable for their identity, wines with a clear and therefore unmistakable stylistic profile. This estate has 250,000 back aged bottles making it one of the largest library collections in the world. Their National Sales Director was quoted as saying they released a 1962 Amarone only in 1984.
Since 1857 the Bertani family have made wines that are recognizable for their identity, wines with a clear and therefore unmistakable stylistic profile. They have always chosen the path of territorial wines.
Known as one of the most prestigious vineyard regions in Italy, the Veronese zone is a varied territory with a long enological tradition. Today it boasts the largest number of DOC wines on the peninsula.

Can my wine be left if I’m not home?
Yes! However if someone else is accepting the delivery for you, they must be over 18 years of age. Bottega Italia cannot deliver wines to anyone less than 18 years of age. If there is any doubt about the age of the recipient on delivery, our delivery drivers are obliged to request some form of photographic ID. If that recipient is unable to produce appropriate ID then the delivery driver will be unable to leave the wine.
If nobody will be at home, then just make sure when placing your order that you give us explicit instructions that it’s ok to leave the delivery. With "Authority to Leave" deliveries, our couriers will leave the wine in a safe place, where possible at the delivery address. If that’s not possible, the driver will leave a card to advise that the delivery has been will be directed to the nearest Parcel Connect agent.
By providing us with an "Authority To Leave" instruction when placing your order, then you authorise the courier to leave the goods unattended at the delivery address and you accept that once the courier has done so, the complete order has been received.
Can my order be delivered to a P.O. Box?
Generally yes, although Australia Post has occasionally rejected deliveries to P.O. Boxes. We will contact you if your delivery to a P.O. Box is rejected by Australia Post.
