Bolla Amarone Cantina del Nonno 1969 Recioto della Valpolicella Amarone Classico
Part of the Valpolicella family of wines, each Corvina and Rondinella dominant blends, Recioto Della Valpolicella is a sub-classification of Amarone.
Recioto della Valpolicella is the unfamiliar cousin to the famous Amarone della Valpolicella. Both wines are produced from the same grape varieties which have been dried on straw-racks for periods of several months; Amarone is then fully fermented to very little residual sugar, whereas Reciotto is dried even longer before crushing and partially fermenting to leave a high residual sugar content.
