Product Description

Overview

Winery: Accordini

Accordini Amarone Riserva "Le Viole" 2005 is made from 70% Corvina and Corvinoni, 20% Rondinella, 10% Rossignola.

The wine is aged 60 months in oak barrels, then aged 24 months in tank, and another 6 months in the bottle before release.

This Riserva is a deep red with violet overlays in the glass, which is where the name Le Viole stems from. A more elegant expression then their standard Amarone. Complex nose of licorice, tobacco, blueberries and vanilla from the oak aging. Concentrated and balanced on the palate with well rounded and elegant tannins which give this Amarone great depth. 


Review:

Opaque black.  Dark and brooding, the Riserva Le Viole is a winter wine to be consumed with braised meats and hearty stews. It’s lush and big flavored, bold and rich with dense black/red fruit, black olives, and huge extract on the finish that goes on forever. Decant before serving.  Aged 60 months in oak barrels and 24 months in tank.-International Wine Review 92 Points

The Accordini Winery

The Accordini Winery is settled in the heart of the classic Valpolicella, Pedemonte. The estate is approximately 25 hectares in Negrar. The Accordini Winery focuses on three varietals: Corvina, Rossignola, Rondinella, Corvinoni, Garganega. The focus is the Ripassa style and Corvina grape, where Accordini dominates.

Guido Accordini, the family’s third generation winemaker, wanted to make the winery a leader in high quality wines production. Guido’s father built a new cellar for this high quality production. Here the most famous “Amarone” was made.

"A tiny Amarone producer of impeccable quality; the Le Bessole bottling has traditional spice, earth notes, and deep fruit; the Riserva is tannic; most of the wines offer elegance and food-friendly acidity."
