Guerrieri Rizzardi Description
Our Amarone Villa Rizzardi Riserva is aged 36 months in barrels, mostly French oak and can be stored for several years. It is an elegant wine that can be paired with roasted or braised meat, game emat, for example venison, curry dishes and aged cheeses such as Pecorino di Pienza. - Villa Rizzardi
Vinous Media: 95 Points
“The 2016 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Villa Rizzardi keeps me at the edge of the glass, with a captivating mix of dusty black cherry and blueberry complemented by a dusty spice box full of cloves and dried flowers. This is an elegant wine with a core of minerality and radiant dark red fruits that cascade across the palate. This finishes lightly structured with balsam herbs and mocha left to linger as residual acids maintain a lovely freshness. The 2016 is wonderfully balanced and over delivers in every way.”
