AREA OF PRODUCTION Valpolicella
PAIRING Meat, Cheese, Pasta
Obtained from the indigenous Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes grown in the classic Valpolicella area, using the traditional method of drying in the fruttaio, Amarone certainly needs no introduction! With a rather recent history, it has managed to climb the ranks in just a few decades, becoming one of the most prestigious wines in Italy and the world. Rooted in the strong winemaking tradition of Valpolicella, Passo del Bovaro is a tribute and, at the same time, a reinterpretation, in a modern key, of a legendary, mighty, challenging and muscular wine, but, above all, great value for money!
Intense and impenetrable garnet red in colour, it presents on the nose complex aromas of sour cherries in spirit and prunes, floral aromas of wilted violets and a multitude of sweet spices including vanilla, cloves and cinnamon, with hints of roasting. The sip is bursting, structured and at the same time incredibly soft, caressed by velvety tannins that lead towards a long mon cherie finish.
Ideal with all types of barbecued red meat, braised meats, game and mature cheeses.
The Winery
The Cantina di Negrar was founded on 23 August 1933, when six local men decided to unite in a cooperative society to defend the territory from speculative investments, choosing to reach the consumer directly through a product bottled in full respect of the local winemaking tradition. The headquarters was at Villa Mosconi, in Arbizzano di Negrar, and the success was so striking, right from the start, that the winery received a special mention diploma in 1935 at the Universal Exhibition in Brussels. In 1936, the first Amarone was born, after tasting a Recioto wine accidentally left to ferment for a long time and, in 1948, the Cantina Sociale Valpolicella moved to San Vito di Negrar, merging with the Cantina Produttori della Valpolicella; In 1957, the Cantina was refounded, with 80 members, in Negrar, in what is still its headquarters today, pursuing a quality project aimed at identifying some of the most vocated areas of Valpolicella from which, with intense work alongside the winegrowers, grapes of extraordinary quality are obtained. Even today, after 80 years of history and success, the mission has never changed: to design the future with a view to sustainability and respect for traditions and the territory.
