Italian Red Wines

I love Italian red wines, Amarone is a particular favourite of mine, especially the Amarones from Zenato. Both the standard Amarone and the Sergio Zenato Riserva are consistently superb year on year. If you can’t stretch to this price point Zenato Ripassa is known as “baby Amarone”. It is Valpolicella wine that has gone through the “Ripasso” treatment of a secondary fermentation on the Amarone pommace which gives it more depth, flavour and alcohol. Indeed Zenato’s Ripassa is better than many cheap Amarones.

There is much more to Italian red wines than just Amarone though. Many of Italy’s best red wines are world famous in their own right such as Brunello di Montalcino, the pinnacle of Sangiovese. Barolo is known as “the king of wines” although personally despite having tasted many of the highly rated ones, it’s just not my personal cup of tea, but everybody has their own preferred taste. There is great Sangiovese in the form of good Chianti Classico Riservas. Superb Bordeaux blends such as DOC Bolgheri, and we have an organic beauty from it”s neighbour Maremma from Cantina La Selva. The “Super Tuscans” sprang up when the authorities over regulated production and great winemakers chose to avoid the classification system altogether and label their top wines as “Vino da Tavola” – costing upwards of £100 per bottle for the great ones!

There are a great many natural producers in Italy too such as Sequerciani farming traditional grapes such as Pugnitello and Foglia Tonda. And good value hot weather wines coming from Puglia such as Negroamaro and Primitivo. Without a doubt Italy has a red wine to suit every taste and budget.

Amarone Campagnola

Amarone Guiseppe Campagnola is a delicious Amarone, perfect with food. It’s a bit softer and lighter in style than Campagnola’s Caterina Zardini Amarone, but is still a big wine. It’s super smooth and full flavoured. It’s great value to get such a quality Amarone at this price.

Guiseppe Campagnola makes some great red wines at affordable prices when compared to other Amarone, Valpolicella and Ripasso wines. They are consistently good quality and great value for money.

Amarone Sergio Zenato Riserva

Sergio Zenato’s personal Riserva Amarone is something special. We’ve been stocking it for years and enjoyed many great vintages. It is the one wine we turn to when we decide to treat ourselves to a special wine. Sergio Zenato sadly passed away a few years back, so this wine is now made by his son Alberto. It is still extremely limited of course and made to honour the great Sergio Zenato who is one of the all time great exponents of Amarone.

Regrettably we’ve had to pass on significant supplier increases as Italy is struggling with excessive energy prices affecting both production and transport.

Amarone Zenato

Amarone Classico Della Valpolicella Zenato to give it it’s full name is one of the finest Amarones on the market and Zenato are one of the top Amarone producers. They are members of the elite Amarone producers consortium of course. This Amarone is made by Alberto Zenato who took over the winemaking from his father, the great Sergio Zenato, who sadly passed away a few years back.

In my opinion one of the best and most consistent Amarones on the market. Certainly my favourite out of all the big name Amarones out there. I’ve been drinking this wine for as long as I can remember and have never had a disappointing vintage. Consistently excellent every year!

Passo del Sud Appassimento

Luca Maroni  95 Points

Passo del Sud is a new wine for us made in the Appassimento method of pre drying the grapes in the sun to concentrate flavour, alcohol and power.

This wine is the collaboration of two friends (Benedetto & mario) using local indigenous grapes with a little Merlot.

It is very good indeed. Made on a slightly larger scale than our boutique wines but still much smaller than mass produced wines. We have given it a medium rating for sulphites just to be over cautious, so please avoid it if you have a sulphite intolerance. For everybody else though this is an excellent choice if you want a powerful wine at the right money.

Big, powerful yet velvet smooth. Excellent wine!

Valpolicella Superiore Zenato. The image of Valpolicella suffered in the UK in the 1990s when cheap inferior Valpolicella and Chianti were everywhere. But a good Valpolicella is one of northern Italy’s most popular and most respected red wines. Zenato are one of the Veneto region’s best producers and members of the elite Amarone Consortium. All their wines are high quality. You will note this Valpolicella is  a “Superiore” meaning it has to be aged for at least one year before release and must be at least 12% abv – a guarantee of quality.

This wine is delicious, and a long time favourite with many of our customers. It’s very smooth with great fruit and a long finish.
