Montresor Amarone Fondatore is a masterful expression of Valpolicella’s terroir, crafted to honor the founder of the Montresor estate. This Amarone offers an exquisite bouquet of dried fruits, black cherries, and a touch of licorice, reflecting the meticulous selection of Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes.

On tasting, Montresor Amarone Fondatore presents rich, concentrated flavors of dark berries, cocoa, and baking spices, beautifully integrated with hints of cedar and earthy undertones. The wine’s structure is bold yet balanced, with a smooth, lingering finish that speaks to the expertise behind its production.

Best enjoyed with dishes like roasted lamb, grilled steak, or aged Parmigiano-Reggiano, this Amarone is a tribute to tradition and a prime choice for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
